Monique: Keep both copies to compare what they might have changes

Amanda: Policy recommendation was to revamp them because they are out dated, so this year it will actually be updated

Testing Centre:

Amanda Drake: Judith the current VP of academic, decided to make decisions to stop Exams and Mid-terms from being able to be run through the testing center and having to be through lab and class time.

Monique: Should expand center not get rid of it

Amanda Drake: Expanding would be way better

Amanda Moore: Is there anyone students could complain to?

Amanda Drake: Gather the information from the students either this year or in the summer to get the students ideas and opinions

Who is the retreat with?

Amanda Drake: Incoming board and present board

Scott: Turtle Conservation- they still need to figure out if anyone can help with the 5K

Business:

Health and Safety:

Amanda Drake: It’s FSA responsibility to have an H&S representative. It’s hard to give someone that duty because they might ignore that part of the job. Possibly give to Bonnie and she would have to be trained in the H&S aspect. She would be doing monthly checks, doing first aid training and be the first aid person. Creating health and safety protocol. Purposing FSA pay for Bonnie to get training. Course in Oshawa in July 551.35, for millage 182= total of $742… Peterborough would be a little keeper because of gas.

Monique: Create a student job possibly?

Amanda Drake: Got students to volunteer their time and to look at the FSA space and they gave some feedback.

Monique: Since Bonnie will be here for years then it also may be good to have her in the position.

Amanda Drake: The green book would prefer for a full time staff to have the Health and Safety position.

Amanda Moore: Have the training done in the summer so Bonnie is ready for September

Scott: A lot of events cause a lot of business so summer will be better.

Monique motions to approve the summer course for Bonnies training for $741.75 total, Scott seconds the motions, all in favor.

Scott: Should have an eye wash station. Add a spot to put safety material in the case the Ministry comes in for an inspection.

Auk’s Lodge Summer Hours:

Amanda Drake: Staff is waiting for hours. Students still use the area and students pay the fee for the Auk’s lodge to be operating.

Amanda Drake: prefer to see the Auk’s lodge open at least 2 days a week

Monique: Prefers 3 [has the perspective of being a summer student]

Business:

Ancillary fees for board discussion and potential approval- Kristi

• In November 2017 Kristi reviewed the fees in detail, she here to show the board that there has been no change.
• 2% increase of ancillary fees
• Recommended 2% increase on athletics as well
• The numbers being looked at now are the final numbers so FSA will have to make a decision and ensure everyone is in agreement with fees, then they will go to the Board of Governors to also approve the fees
• At the Board of Governors meeting last year SAC and FSA were present at the meeting which allowed student leaders to see the fees getting approve.
• Kristi wants FSA members to come again to watch the fees getting approved this year by the Board of Governors
• Kristi is leaving the fee proposal with the FSA board to review and discuss their opinion, FSA board has until the end of February to approve or change any details in the ancillary fees
• Maddy: added 10 dollars for fitness classes this year and wants to know if we can bring up the conversation again because the classes have not been successful
• Kristi in response: Suggest Rob McAulay and FSA get in touch to discuss how the service is useful and figure out what they want to do with the fee. To figure out if there was value in the extra $10
• FSA can give a recommendation for what to do with the student activity fee
• The student center fee was paying off a loan and the loan will be paid off as of January, but change of ancillary fees won’t occur until September 2018 as they don’t change the fees half way through the year although the money will then be going to the maintenance of the Auk’s Lodge
• Consider the changing of the Fitness facility ($40)- if FSA would like to change that fee they can
• Transit- FSA has flexibility with changing the transit fees
• Health insurance- FSA doesn’t have direct say in the changing of fee
• Amanda Moore asks where the athletic fees are going- Kristi answers with: supporting the field house, intramural’s, classes etc.
• Mental health fee- is imbedded in student activities fee, its not separate

Questions:

Amanda Moore- Mental health is in student fees so do we have say?

Amanda Drake- It is FSA’s choice to where the fee is going

Kristi- FSA decided last year that the mental health fee needed to be increased so they added a fee to have the extra services

Recap-

Kristi would like:

• Approval of the fees she showed the FSA Board of Directors today
• Begin conversation about FSA fees and what they are going to do with them

Halliburton and Frost Student fees are the same

Maddy: Will have to talk to Rob McAuley about athletics

Review of Mental Health ancillary fee spending- Red Keating:

• All Kristi left out was the purpose of the fee
  • In January there was a “reporting time” built to help provide FSA with information on where the services are most used to help determine where fees should be going in the next year
• The have hired a counsellor 24 hours a week for 9 months
• Has worked just at Frost, that provided more service as now there was one counsellor for each of the campuses
• The no-show rates were not too bad even given the strike last semester
• The counsellor had 210 appointments booked, with no shows and cancellations 136 appointments took place
• Having the extra counsellor provided service to 72 more students
• With an extra counsellor, Lorain, the full time counsellor was able to double her time at the Haliburton campus
• Lorain also had connection to the other campus threw video chat appointments with students at Haliburton
• At Haliburton, this time last year only 12 student were seen by a counsellor but this year it reached 20 students
• 91 appointments took place this year versus 49 last year. Number has almost doubled.
• Over the 2 campuses, almost 80 extra students were seen by a counsellor this year
• No waiting list anymore, students are either seen the same day they went to make the appointment or with in the week
• Walk-in have been added- 2 hours a day are dedicated to walk-ins
• Before there was a 2-3 week waiting list and now the student are seen much sooner
• System was changed- job title of counsellors is now “Personal Wellness Counsellor” 
• Support is across campus- if no counselor is available at one campus other campuses are able to provide video support for the appointment
• The help is usually from Sutherland to Frost as they have more counselors
• Maddy: The issue was having to wait so long so it is good that now the waiting list is gone
• Amanda Moore: Each person gets an hour?
• Red: What happens is you get an intake 30-45 minutes, the system is now changed to allow counsellors to assess the level of service the person needs. It changed from solving the short term problem to longer term help (referrals or going online to look for other connections)
• Amanda Moore: Does a quick appointment change to a walk-in time?
• Red: Yes the counselor will take the next person.
• If the time goes over they let the front desk know that they might be late so they can let the next person know.
• Amanda- Does Haliburton do a lot of virtual appointments?
• Only goes once a week, start with online then meet in person when the counsellor drives to the campus. Flipping between video and face to face
• Amanda Drake- Went to Haliburton and talked to students, they said that virtual was actually very effective.
• Red: Population of around 60 student at Haliburton so it is an okay ratio for students to counsellor is decent.
• The virtual system has been doing its job and helped lack of appointments problem by giving the students more availability
• Also giving more support a mental health session was offered after the strike, other events besides counselling were offered as well
• In the end, many things came together last semester.

Kristi:

Expense: Based on the 2015/2016 year for mental health services at Frost and Haliburton- $47500

Actuals to date (fall semester) - $22,000

Expected until the end of the academic year (May): $15,000

Estimated total for 17/18 year- $37,000

Big difference between estimated and what was spent

• March 31- the money continues to fund until the end of May, there will still be $10,000 give or take. It will still be FSA money
• It can be left in there to fund the 18/19 year
• Kristi suggest putting it towards mental health
• Should use what they collect (the $10,000) instead of holding and saving it
• Or they could lower the fee if there keeps being a lot of money left over
• What service could they give if the price is lowered
• Kristi: curious as to what else does the FSA want to think about doing- with student services – not think of mental health as last chance health option, offer the service for prevention. By adding events or other services to help.

Kristi Kerford and Red Keating Leave.

Ancillary:

• Giving more money to Haliburton
• The numbers went up because of the strike stress
• The $10,000 is a big indicator of what to do with the fees
• Use money to purchase sculptures from Haliburton students?
• Cut the field house classes because they are very unsuccessful, talk to Rob McAulay about cutting out the classes
• A lot of money and there was no increase in services
• Either decrease money or put it towards something that students with use like a sensor room
• They changed the model of the counsellor system so that is also something to look at as well

Amanda postponed any decision to be made at this meeting.

Coffee Proposal:

• Coffee machine is leaking
• Local company will supply but we have to buy there coffee
• 2 thermals and be replaced as desired
• Environmentally friendly, packages are biodegradable
• For Amanda to make a decisions she want to see a break down of the comparison of prices from now to if we change companies
• Buying another machine is around $150
• Would it put FSA in competition with Earmark?
• FSA owns the coffee machine now and if we switched the company would own the machine
• Amanda wants cost breakdown, currently spent now, daily-weekly-monthly- projections versus how much has been made from both semesters. Compare outtake vs. intake.
• Amanda Drake postponed, all in favor

FSA Budget Update:

• Looked at raising buy 1.8%
• Cost of living goes up buy 2%
• Board needs to decide if they want to increase student activity fee
• Woodland times revenue, need to know what FSA will be looking at for income and expenses
• Vacation pay for board of directors, address the change that could potentially happen with the summer directors salary
• For the sake of future boards and budgets, set a pay so that the next Board of Directors can receive that and then decided for the other future boards whether to change the budget or not
• Mileage went up considerably, $1018, $18 from the 1.8% increase
• Event and supplies, a lot more was spent
• The auk lodge operations on a deficit, FSA pays for deficit using money out of the activity fee, which is still being operating and not spending enough money, therefore there will be more money and FSA won’t have to pay for deficit anymore.
• There will be more money for events
• All accounts are doing well, none are in the negatives
  • Although things still need to be paid

Appeal final grade, 3 days to respond, if they don’t respond student appeals to panel or if student does approve of the response they can appeal that.

Amanda Drake didn’t receive 2 board members time sheet and they were paid anyways so from now on there will be no reminders and the members wont get paid for their hours.

Madeline brings up ancillary fees; need to talk about spectrum and the mental health care. Next week it will be brought up again and discussed.

Amada Drake talking about Snow fest- time is up and there has been lack of prep and organization, Bonnie is running into issue because she doesn’t have a clear description of the resources she needs to plan her part in the event well. There needs to be better communication between board members and everyone needs to stay on top of things.

Amanda Drakes event: Movie night, Stepbrothers is free and being played at 7, snacks that will be purchased for event but are going to be free for the students. She won’t need assistances from the board, Friday January 19th, 2018

Bonnie has made a sheet for the board members to fill out as she needs to be able to know what is going when there are events and needs to know what instructions to give the staff involved with any events, she printed forms for the members to fill out prior to events.

Amanda Moore and Diana’s event: wait for Boxing Day to purchase supplies, Bonnie and Amanda are going shopping Jan 4. Making picture back drop. Date of event is January 18th, 2018. No stamps need to be giving but wristbands will be given to 19+. Working on getting live music.

Monique sent the safety concerns and liability sheets to Amanda and Madeline. Monique and Kyle are going out and getting prizes- outdoor themed prizes. Bonnie said that there are hats and mitts in the auk’s lodge for add to the prizes. Request that Madeline or Amanda be there. Monique sent out a request to St. Johns to bring to ambulance to the event. Amanda suggest that Monique book table in discovery trail to advertise event, 60 people can sign up with groups of 4 which equals 15 groups.

Food Bank- Sherry requested 1-2pm board members help her move food bank supply from her car to office. There will be around 60 boxes. January 9 is when she is bring the food supplies.

Business:

Beer Yoga:

Amanda Moore talking: Student request, fun and relaxing time and would gather interest. 1-2 hours in the auk lodge, free admission, yoga mats from the field house or students can bring their own. Hire yoga instructor. You drink beer while doing yoga- not mandatory to drink beer.

Amanda drake motions to approve $100 budget for beer yoga, Monique seconds, all in favor.

Compliment group:

Amanda Drake request $100

Madeline motions to approve $150 for compliment group, Amanda drake seconds, all in favor

Going to make tiny care packages

Storage Room:

Bonnie says that the storage room is hard to navigate so putting in shelves will benefit everyone being organized, cleaner, prevention for health and safety risk.; temporary shelving units. First shelve she shows can hold 4000 pounds, stationary, more durable and secure. Rolling shelves are good for being able to more around, $334+taxes, commercial grade.

Monique doesn’t think that there is a point in paying more for the rolling shelves because things are moved a lot.

Kyle thinks that they should be stationary depending on where they are.

Amanda and Madeline thinks that they should start with getting 2 shelves that are stationary and then they can look into getting more after. Bonnie asks that Amanda Drake and Madeline help organize.

Monique doesn’t know if she will be here yet week of Jan 8. Suggest that when she is here to help Sherry move food bank boxes on Tuesday they also organize the selves.

Amanda Drake request $500 budget for shelving units, Madeline seconds, all in favor

Amanda Drake- Big buck and Air hockey haven’t been getting used or haven’t really been working. Wants to see how much they could sell it for, everyone agrees with selling them. The key is lost to open up the spot where the puck is for the air hockey table. Bonnie suggests not getting something that could break down and therefore potentially cost more money to fix it. Adding machines limits space

Amanda Drake said that the capacity would still stay the same.

Madeline wants the board to brainstorm and think of things to fill the space of the machines that get sold.

Pool tables were just re-done and the material is ruined again. Amanda Drake will put up sign stating to not jump the pool table balls and potentially start asking for student cards before they start playing to figure out who is ruining them. Bonnie is asked to get cost for how much it would be re-felt it- wouldn’t be fixed until next year.

Late night food budget:

The Late Night/Early Morning Food budget has been set at $600, Oatmeal in the morning, muffins and veggie trays at night, not going to Aramark.

Bonnie request that we negotiate for a standing order at Loblaws or Food Basics. Provide late night support throughout the first week back, in the morning then at night during midterms and exams. FSA will boil the water and students can make there own oatmeal from the packages that FSA is providing. During snow fest, January 16, Tuesday @ 7am, set up to give oatmeal, apples and bananas to students, orange and apple juice boxes. Set up in main foyer.
