Meeting Minutes
11/3/04
Present: Ashley Andorfer, SAAC, Monica Novak, SAAC, Troy
Reynolds, Ministerial Association, Jason Karsky, Criminal
Justice faculty, Ron Vick, Karen Granberg and Lin Brummels,
Counseling Center
The agenda was reviewed and several items discussed.
1. Providence Medical Center has reported 15 acute
alcohol poisoning cases since January 2004. There were
several questions about how many of this group were
WSC students, high school students, community members,
etc.
2. The group discussed the Residence Life project which
displayed pictures of people who died of alcohol poisoning.
The display was initially set up in Berry Hall, then traveled
to the Student Center and finally spent about a week at
Wayne High School. The Principal of Wayne High School called
today to say thank you to Kathy Mohlfeld and John Sinniger
for hanging the display at Wayne High. He will be sending
a “thank you” letter also.
3. The NCAAW and Red Ribbon week activities were reviewed.
The displays in the upper cafeteria were quite effective
(including the pictorial display of the meth lady),
attracting the attention of the Board of Trustees during
their visit to campus last week.
4. The “Tie One On For the Holidays” program
presented by Norman Small and sponsored by The Wayne City
Council, GAMMA, SADD, Support Staff Senate and Student Senate
was described and discussed. The community is being asked
to sign pledges not to drink and drive over the upcoming
Thanksgiving to New Years holiday.
5. Committee reports:
a. Education and Information – Social Norms quiz
prepared by Connie Bargstadt and Austin Rodriquez will
be available 11/4/04 on Steak Night in the student cafeteria.
Key chain and pop rewards will be given to participants.
b. Neighborhood Relations – This group initiated
a petition to protest the addition of a class D liquor
license to the Pamida store in Wayne. Two WSC staff,
a member of the ministerial association and two students
will be traveling to the hearing in Lincoln on 11/4/04
to present testimony.
c. Policy and Enforcement- This group has been working
on the Safe Ride Program. They are waiting for the administration
to lease a van so they can advertise the program to begin
in January 2005. Curt Frye has contacted a few places
and will continue to work on this contract.
d. Social Environment – This committee is
preparing a twice monthly flyer of events and advertising
those events on the TRUST website.
Projects for the future:
- Work with SAAC to sponsor a social event at a game
this winter.
- Invite a representative from the EN-Care group
at Providence to come to make a presentation to the
TRUST coalition.
- Work with Network Services to find a more direct
site on the homepage for the TRUST coalition address.
This would make it possible to have a much shorter
and easier to remember address.
Lin Brummels for Kathy Mohlfeld
