Motions:
Girls of Color proposed to host a diaper donation derby all of next week (now this week, the week of 3/17). The grade that brings the most diapers will win a prize. The motion passed.
Discussions:
A hypothetical schedule proposal was brought up for discussion. The idea was to change the short I/TA block to the morning before A block. The goal would be to accommodate the chronically late buses and allow those arriving on later buses to get breakfast. Graham noted he often sees students debating whether to get breakfast or go to their A block on time, and this schedule change would help prevent students going without breakfast and being late to class. Other solutions were proposed such as making A block 5 minutes longer.
The next town meeting will be held on April 3rd.
