In a meeting that lasted around 3 and half hours, the 2020-21 Association of Students of the University of Nebraska senate passed 12 pieces of legislation in the current administrationâs final full meeting of the year.Â
Jake Johnson, associate to the chancellor for Institutional Equity and Compliance, spoke about the recent sexual misconduct training and answered questions brought up by senators. Johnson said he and his staff welcome the feedback.Â
âThis particular training offered the opportunity for people to be engaged throughout the delivery of the program,â Johnson said.Â
The majority of the concerns and questions raised were regarding the process for choosing the program and the insensitivity of the program.
The Association of Students of the University of Nebraska will convene Wednesday for the final meeting of the 2020-21 ASUN administration and vote on 14 pieces of legislation.Â
Jake Johnson, associate to the chancellor for Institutional Equity and Compliance, will speak to the senate regarding the concerns that have been raised regarding the sexual misconduct training.Â
Government Bill 32, if passed, would officially state ASUNâs support for the implementation of a public database that would include every incident of racial bias, racism or discrimination reported to the university. This bill was supposed to be voted on last week, but was postponed for revisions.
April 22 will mark the 51st annual Earth Day. As weather warms and plants bloom here in Nebraska, organizations all over the world will be celebrating the day in support for environmental protection, and several clubs at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have come together to do the same.
Each year, the Association of Students of the University of Nebraska puts on Earthstock, a month-long event to celebrate Earth Day and raise awareness for sustainable living.
ASUN partnered with the University Program Council and Sustain UNL to create a month of eco-friendly events. ASUNâs Environmental Sustainability Committee chair and senior computer science and economics double major Rohan Thakker said Earthstock is a chance for UNL students to engage with the eco-friendly groups on campus and learn helpful environmental practices.
