5.1 ASO Movie Night – Jack DeMont
Jack DeMont stated that Senate approved the event and that ASO needs $400 to
purchase the licensing rights to the Dark Knight. Jack DeMont then stated that he
believes ASO should allocate more money for concessions and fliers. The hopes
to Movie Night will be to make back enough money to fund a continuation of this
event. Kevin Paxton asked if ASO could have multiple viewings of the Dark
Knight. Jack DeMont replied that the movie needs to be returned immediately or a
fee of $400 would occur.

5.2 ICC/ASO Homecoming – Jack DeMont
Jack DeMont stated that this year ASO and ICC are trying to work together on
Homecoming. Jack DeMont stated ICC wants ASO to split the cost of
Homecoming $1,500 each. ICC normally uses around $2000, and has already
allocated $3,000 for the event; however, ICC wants to keep the extra amount of
money just in case they wish to spend more on another event or to refill their
account. Jasmine Hormati asked if ASO will have a say on what events are too
take place during Homecoming. Jasmine believed that ICC should fund the event
totally and ASO shouldn’t have to fund an event if we do not have a say in how
the event should be made. It was agreed that ASO would help fund Homecoming
but also have a say so in what events are held, so that if ASO wants to have an
event it can use the funds allocated for that event.
 Motion to allocate up to $750 from Campus Enrichment account # (7155001-00-836409-7670 to help fund Homecoming made by Sharon Asher.
Seconded by Rebekka Asher Motion Passed.
