Financial Problems: Jeremy gave a quick explanation to the club what the problems were: - When Chris resigned, the officers started looking through financial reports so we would be aware of our financial status. POìs, receipts, and other random stuff was given to look through. Money discrepancies were found and further looked into. Chris responded that he had replied to the club as requested and the information is in the packet. This was available in the mailbox after 4:00pm today. He will answer any questions the club may have. Seth argued that the packet was not in the mailbox when he checked at 5:30pm (when he went to supper). Chris said he may have been checking to see if it was still there at that time. Seth does have the packet now and has not reviewed it yet. Will review it and ask more questions about it. Chris said he was there for any questions that we may have. Jeremy asked where is the money. Chris responded that he does admit to owing the club $107. The rest he is not responsible for and the letter in the packet goes into more detail. Jeremy disagreed, said Chris was wrong. The books came to $261.09. Chris said to go through the packet, it is explained in the letter. He had a meeting with Senate today and Shannon will be talking with Seth. The money is not in the account. POìs were made after 5/11 when Chris resigned. Since the officers did not have a chance to review the packet, Chris agreed to come back to another meeting in case there are more questions. III.
