Fall Overview
The Council of Student Leaders had its retreat in early September. We were
able to make a list of our goals and expectations for the upcoming school year
and formed committees that would work to address issues that we find to be
relevant to students.
Committees

o Working to find innovative and pragmatic approaches to addressing
safety concerns in areas adjacent to campus
UIRR

students are being met by University departments
Transportation

issues that many students face

Community Involvement

a letter to local businesses trying to build community support for the
University in the attempt to increase school spirit here in Rock Hill.
