Dear CUA Students,
Last week the General Assembly passed a Resolution in support of the winners of the Campus Movie Fest held at CUA about one month ago and brought to you by Program Board. This group, which consists of Sarah Castro, Julie Cray, Helen Davis, Nick Hagy, and Katie Kasulaitis, produced a film entitled “I’ll Get It Next Time” and took home the Best Picture Award. Due to their success on campus the group has been given the opportunity to continue competing with their film at the Cannes Film Festival as a part of the “Creative Minds in Cannes” internship program. The film can be viewed at the following link: http://www.vimeo.com/3330029
Associated with the incredible opportunity available to these students, and the prestige for the entire CUA community is a considerable cost. Currently the members of the winning team are fundraising in order to subsidize the nearly $17,000 this program will cost. Any finanicial support regardless of the size would be greatly appreciated. Below is the link for the website through which donations can be made to this effort: http://jkhincannes.blogspot.com/

Chairman, Committee on Student Life
I am proud to announce that I will be serving as Chairman of the Committee on Student Life for the second meeting of the Student Association General Assembly during the 2009-2010 academic year. Of the nineteen current members (2 openings exist for the class of 2010), I received sixteen votes in my bid for re-election to the post of Chairman. While the past year has been both busy and productive for the Student Life Committee I look forward to a bevy of new initiatives in 2009.
I have recently begun working on improving the content and efficiency of Student Life Meetings and once the committee members are determined will be opening new and innovative lines of communication to ensure that we represent the body to the very best of our abilities. From the members of my committee I will appoint a secretary who will serve both as the official keeper of records for the Student Life Committee and deputy chair in the event of my absence.
Looking over the issues that we have confronted in the first year of the General Assembly I am incredibly optimistic about the future. We must engage the pressing issues facing the students of The Catholic University of America and work tirelessly to ensure the highest quality experience possible. Furthermore we must seek an active partnership with the administration, recognizing the common goal of bettering the time students spend at Catholic. However, we cannot shy away from the controversial and sometimes divisive problems on this campus. Instead we must seek to remedy them in a rationale and out of the box fashion creating pragmatic solutions to major problems. Also I plan on placing a sincere focus on areas of student life that are often overlooked and bringing them to the forefront of my legislative agenda.
I cannot wait to get to work and start filling the liaison positions on my Committee.
Sincerely,
Ryan Winn
