A. Tommie Post, Activities Assistant- Thanked everyone for their
participation during Welcome Week.
B. Niveen Almezory, Public Relations Assistant- @TheASGCC is how people
can connect with us via Snapchat, Vine, Instagram.

booths throughout Welcome Week.
E. Senators, Manny Juarez, Alex Cintron, Julio Chavez- Alex volunteered at
the Bagels and Coffee event. Reported that it was a success.
F. Evan Esparza, Trustee- Attended a district meeting where audit findings
were checked, there was little to no audits. Grossmont College is building
a new theater. Attended convocation with President Mariah last week at
Cuyamaca College. On Feb 16th, there will be a joint meeting with
Grossmont’s ASG at 5pm. Lastly, there was a meeting with the Academic
Senate and one of the topics was that the hiring process should consider
employing more diverse part time faculty. Seth Slater, faculty member
and part time professor, also attended this meeting and comments that
this new proposed hiring process can be a concern for part time faculty as
the presented figures showed part time professors being predominantly
white. Part timer’s long stated employment goals could be in conflict with
the Diversity goal.

H. Jesus Suarez, Evening Vice President-The Welcome Week turnout was a
success.
I. Davi Peterson, Executive Vice President- Welcome Week went well.
