B.
Osprey Voice

Senator Brown: We thought January 27 th -29 th for the dates. o Question ideas-

Senator Donnelly: I am pretty sure we are able to contract with Dunkin
Donuts. So maybe we could switch out the Starbucks in outtakes to
Dunkin. So we could ask students if they are interested in that.

Senator Klein: Since it is basketball season, maybe have some questions geared towards basketball games. Ask them if they are going to attend, and if not, why? More advertising and more tailgates.
*Chairwoman Melquist takes over chair*-5:43PM.

Chairwoman Melquist: I know spinnaker is very active. How much do the students use spinnaker? So see how much people read/see the spinnaker.

Senator Hartsfield: We could ask how often do you read the spinnaker and what source do you use?
 Chairwoman Melquist: I was curious to what social media page students use the most. Where do you get informed the most by social media? And list all of the outlets.

Senator Brown: We can ask for opinions on the new renovations that have already happened in the library?

Chairwoman Melquist: I think we should wait on that one until they are done with renovations.
