Whereas, At Large Representatives are to represent the undergraduate student body at large and
Whereas, it is the responsibility of the At Large Representatives to communicate effectively with the associative student body.
Whereas, there are many students who claim to not have the opportunity to directly and effectively communicate with ASUCI legislators.
Whereas, it is in the university's best interest to have an online public forum directly on the ASUCI website so as to maintain the professional level of our system of communication and
Whereas, the online forum can specifically be targeted to the undergraduate student body and
Whereas, the online forum can be directed towards the Legislative Branch of ASUCI and
Whereas, the Legislative branch can use this forum as a more effective tool to write legislations meeting the student body's needs and/or requests. And
Whereas the preamble of the Associated Students, University Of California Irvine Constitution states, "We, the undergraduate students of the University of California, Irvine community; desire to provide a forum for the expression of the student views and interests, encourage student academic rights and responsibilities, represent and articulate our rights to a voice in campus governance, to enhance the quality of student life, and foster recognition of the rights of students in this university community; and in order to fulfill these aspirations, do, hereby ordain and establish this constitution." And
Whereas, the public forum will apply to the goals our University wishes to uphold from the above mentioned preamble of the Associated Students, University Of California Irvine Constitution.
Let it therefore be resolved that the At Large Representative be allowed to promote and initiate this public forum on the ASUCI website for all undergraduate students to use for the sole purpose of communication with the Legislative Branch.
Let it also be resolved that no money will be needed in the creation of this efficient form of communication between the student body and the Legislative Council representatives. |
