- Do we want to use the results from the encampment survey or are we still interested in having the Staff Senate survey. - Upon looking at both survey, 3 questions are the same. Both surveys are good but they both address different issues. With the encampment survey, will the Staff Senate be able to have access to this? The Staff Senate survey address issues that are more specific to campus. - We should take out the questions that are the same and send out the rest of the questions in regards to the Staff Senate survey. Executive Committee would be the only people looking at this. The goal of the survey is to look at both the good and bad results in hopes of making campus better. • Lobbying to Keep KSU Open - Consensus states we will remain open. - We can hit them with a series of emails and letters talking about keeping KSU open. We can use the staff senate email address to do this.
