| |
| − | Current Privs to Change
| |
| − | � 4-6 check-in based more on responsibility, not GPA. Let�s try to get this one changed immediately.
| |
| − | � Extended Curfew on WEEKENDS for seniors. It�s the only time seniors are allowed to spend time with other seniors. Actually extended on weekdays is used for studying � it�s quiet and easy to focus. It could be beneficial for those below a 3.25.
| |
| − | � More individually based!!! (i.e. already taken micro, 3.24, etc).
| |
| − | � Having a 3.25 gives you 3 nights of study privs. Anything below that is nothing. That�s rather ridiculous. [A 3.24 is no different than a 3.25].
| |
| − | o What�s with the difference in 1st year privs and 2nd year privs? .. I missed it/I am confused.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | New Privilege Ideas � disciplinary record based, not academically based. Look at them on an individual basis!!!!!
| |
| − | � 2nd-year trips/activities � Social activities ARE important!!! You need something to encourage a student to study.
| |
| − | o Senior trips are usually on Saturday night � who studies that late, anyway? No one.
| |
| − | o Senior trips SHOULD be senior trips, not a good-GPA senior trip. Changing this is not giving those with a �bad� GPA a reward. It�s really not punishing them. Last year they all got to go to Perkins (even with below a 3.0). Now those without a 3.25 wouldn�t get to go. Consistency?!
| |
| − | o More just-senior activities. We want to be able to spend alone time with our classmates.
| |
| − | � Seniors to have cars. Turn in keys. To be used for going home for the weekend.
| |
| − | o Storage?
| |
| − | ? There�s already a shortage of parking spaces on campus
| |
| − | ? Maybe we could park a car in a place we don�t have access to. The staff would have to shuttle us to our cars.
| |
| − | o Ask academy what the reasoning is behind not having cars. Just liability?
| |
| − | o Use cars to go home, KCI, possibly SAT.
| |
| − | o Is it just a liability issue? If so the parents can�t sign waivers.
| |
| − | o Parents have to approve before any time a student gets their key.
| |
| − | � If they trust us enough to be here, they should show it. We�ve earned this because we�ve been here for a year. We�ve proven ourselves.
| |
| − | � GPA Rant � what are the real motivations for having above a 3.25? Not many. Naming those below a 3.25 as incompetent is demeaning. Don�t change the GPA rules, just treat us better [mainly RCs attitudes]. People would be more productive if they are happier.
| |
| − | � E-mail other academies and ask about their senior privileges.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Other Privileges/Ideas
| |
| − | � 2nd year + Staff Meetings
| |
| − | o Communication between RCs and student is lacking.
| |
| − | o 2nd years would like to give their insight to Rob. Quality over quantity, though. Maybe we should wait until 2nd semester, though.
| |
| − | � Net Cut
| |
| − | o Try a preliminary basis.
| |
| − | o Let�s poll the parents!
| |
| − | o Korean students � have to look up the information AND try to do their online homework. Non-net-cut would be greatly beneficial to some of these students.
| |
| − | o Previous experiences in Douglas � May session with females and up until recently with everyone in Douglas. It actually turned out all right.
| |
| − | o Some students stay up until midnight just because internet is there. Net cut can provide more sleep.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Side-note 1: Dances ending at 11. Talk to Winston individually.
| |
| − | Side-note 2: Talk about net cut in AIC or SGA.
| |
| − | Side-note 3: The RCs work from 4-12 PM, but we don�t see them during that time anyway. [Them = about � of the RCs]
