Summary of Council September 7th

At the first AUS meeting of the semester, we talked about our goals heading into the new school year. We also had a presentation by the Speaker of Council on Robert’s Rules of Order, approved stipended AUS hirings, and as we do each year, passed the Territorial Acknowledgment, recognizing that McGill is situated on traditional indigenous land. We also approved fees for a new Classics course, CLAS 349/649 in Italy this summer, so reach out to the Classics Department for more info! Overall, Council emphasized open communication, transparency, and participation, so that AUS can help Arts students have the best 2016-2017 possible!
