The 36 things ASG executive board members hope to accomplish this winter

In an attempt to make Associated Student Government more accountable, ASG President Jon Webber announced at the beginning of the quarter that each executive board member would have three (more or less) goals to work on for Winter Quarter.

The Weinberg senior said that while he hopes to see all these goals met, he also understands that certain executive board members might have a harder time meeting their goals depending on the difficulty of the project as well as other responsibilities the member has.

The following is a list of their goals taken from the second meeting's agenda.  You can see that some of these things have been consistently brought up in Senate meetings and others are worked on more quietly.  Regardless, there are 36 different goals here they all hope to meet.
