Kyle Davis Opening Remarks
The meeting started out with an introduction of officers and new members. Now that we have all representatives, we need to figure out who will be on what committee. There are 3 options community service, professional oath, and virtual events/app committee.
Professional Oath Committee- Dr. Laura Guidry-Grimes- project we were asked to participate in that provides a tailored updated oath to the traditional professional oaths that we take either during graduation or white coat ceremonies.
Community Service Committee- Coordinate and be involved in different community service opportunities, these are likely going to be limited at this time due to covid, but one of our main focuses will likely be supporting the campus food pantry.
Virtual Events/ App Committee- ideas and coordinating virtual events and maintaining the campus life application.
Seigen Cotton Apptegy Training
She gave a brief overview of the app and how it’s used. Informed students on how to find current events, navigate between places etc. Showed officers how to update and add events to the calendar.
Cheri Goforth-Warmack Food Pantry Update
The Stocked and Ready Food Pantry is open from 2-8pm on Wednesday and 2-6 pm on Thursday. The pantry is located at 401 South Monroe Street. There is a need for more student volunteers.
Vanessa Lewis Student Center Events & IM Update
Gave a virtual tour of the UAMS Student Center
Kyle Davis Review ASG Representatives
Responsibilities, App post
Event Participation
Responsibilities- reps should be sending officers event/organization info to post in app consistently (if app is not being use students will stop using)
Event Participation- we need ASG reps to participate in events and help promote them as well
Missed Meetings- send Nakia or email– No meetings in Dec or May (due to finals and low participation during these times). Therefore, a missed meeting is pretty impactful.
Upcoming events- Escape Room October 22nd and Pumpkin Carving/Painting Oct. 28th (must RSVP both)

Community Service Committee

1. The committee decided for starters they would start as a group volunteering at UAMS Stocked and Reddie since students are somewhat restricted due to Covid-19 event guidelines. At this time UAMS CAN ONLY ALLOW VOLUNTEERS that are ACH & UAMS employees, UAMS
   students, residents, interns, & FAMILY OF Team UAMS & ACH employees.
   The committee will also request ASG as a whole to volunteer as well. A post will go out on the app today.
2. It is the hope of the committee that volunteering can be done at the Arkansas Food Bank and Habitat for Humanity in the Spring 2022 or when Covid-19 event guidelines are relaxed. The community service committee aims to offer a variety of CS events so all students are able and allowed to serve in some capacity.
3. Samuel Cloyd will coordinate the next steps on volunteering and preparation with the Arkansas Food Bank since a date must be selected first. Nakia Dedner will put in event forms for Arkansas Food Bank and Habitat for Humanity as well notify Dr. Sterba of tentative events.
   Virtual Events/ App Committee
4. All events are virtual as of now. For events on campus, an approved event
   form is required. The committee discussed creating a template/google doc to send information in for suggested events. The committee also discussed
   creating an interactive map to help students navigate throughout the campus.
   It was also observed the calendar feature on the UAMS app is underused, so we need to put more focus on it. The Hello Fresh event was a success. There was a proposal to do this event again if possible.

Dr. Laura Guidry-Grimes Professional Oath Project (see email)
Questions & Answers
Dr. Laura Guidry-Grimes is an assistant professor here on campus in the College of Medical Humanities and Bioethics. The idea of the professional oath derived through her interaction with DDEI. She shared an NPR article that University of Pittsburg did to address issues of racial
justice in their revamped Hippocratic Oath. This is a pledge for a level of professionalism the students of Pitt believed was appropriate for the 21st Century. As suggested by Dr. Brian Gittens, Dr. Laura Guidry-Grimes would like to work with ASG to create a preamble to the colleges existing professional oaths. This oath would be read before each college Hippocratic
Oath/Specialty Oaths. Each college can adjust the preamble to fit its specialty area, however ASG will create the wording. The hope is to build off the DDEI Diversity Pledge ASG created in 2020. The next step if ASG agrees is to create a committee within ASG that would meet monthly to work on the oath. Dr. Laura Guidry-Grimes is the primary contact for this project.
Janice Nottenkamper Student Financial Services Update

Kyle Davis Review ASG Representatives
Responsibilities, App post and Event Participation
Kyle gave an overview of the responsibilities below and reiterated the work flow of the student app.
ASG Representatives are expected to:
Attend all ASG monthly meetings (will be held virtually)
Report pertinent information back to respected colleges and assigned
officers (see Article Section 1 of constitution)
Lead by example by following all student compliancy guidelines in an
timely fashion
Participate in student initiatives sponsored by ASG and encourage others
to participate as well
Uphold the student Code of Conduct on and off campus
Post student events on student event app (this is the new platform for
announcing events). We have to get students excited about using it. Thus
far I’ve had to continue to push out email reminders to check the app. We
would like reps to send officers info to post onto App about
organizations and upcoming events. (Reps send info and officers post)
Any excused meeting must be submitted in written format to the ASG
secretary, Kiwanna Norwood and Nakia Dedner prior to meeting time
Before the end of term, representative must explain duties to incoming
representatives
Representatives not meeting expectations are reported to their college
dean and discharged from the ASG. Please inform us asap if you cannot
meet the above guidelines
Nakia Dedner

APPTEGY App Training
Monday’s meeting was dedicated to app training with Seigen. She went through the layout and asked about any changes to be made. The Office of the Registrar, Student Financial Services and Student Wellness leaders were present as well. They wanted to listen in on ideas ASG may have on making pages more user friendly.
The Loblolly event lasted until Friday, April 2nd until Tuesday, April 5th. Easter weekend was a huge utilization period. ASG reserved 200 coupons for students to use with their families and friends. Hopefully we will offer a summer deal since it worked out so well.
Lastly, the Apptegy group will need to bounce some things off the new officers over the summer. Officers will need to check email periodically just in case Nakia need to reach out

Community Service Committee
Arkansas Food Bank update
Stocked and Reddie
Community Clean-up application
Nakia asked that whenever we are doing community service/student life events
that we take pics/selfies/etc. (masked up of course) to show that student life is
still happening in a safe way. And it just helps publicize that ASG student life is
still involved in campus affairs
We have a link from Stocked and Reddie program that will allow us to sign up for volunteer opportunities, Nakia will send out. They need all the help they can get. February 16th is our scheduled day, but we can go whenever.
This semester we decided not to offer community clean up with the city of LR due to poor turnout at previous events. This was previously offered as an IPE activity last semester.
We had a good turnout at AR Foodbank and they really appreciated us coming
and we are welcome back whenever. Call to schedule a bigger group, but if it’s
just a few people then you can just walk in.
Event Committee: Set/change dates for events
Hello Fresh Virtual Cooking update
Currently scheduled for February 18th. We are waiting on paperwork to be finalized to proceed with gathering names, addresses etc. It may have to be pushed back again or be cancelled if paperwork can’t be finalized.
Drive-Thru Movie
We are thinking a weekend in April, maybe Saturday or Sunday evening. Allison will create a poll to decide movie choice once a location has been decided. We are asking War Memorial if we could use their parking lot to set up the theater.
Painting with a Twist
If Hello Fresh falls through, we are thinking of moving PWAT up to February. We will start with ~40 painting kits.
Loblolly Event
We will have to ask UAMS/Loblolly if they could provide a voucher for free scoop of ice cream. If the vouchers would not work, we could do a drive thru area near the residence hall to pick up a scoop of ice cream. For vouchers, we would hope to disperse in late February for use till the end of March. If we had the event, we would pick a date in March.

together a Power Point of varied UAMS Campus Resources on

Accreditation.

DDEI Projects email content sent to ASG Reps and Officers
Project 1–Vinyl Banner and Signing (ASG Diversity Statement)
ASG officers will review the statement draft with the representatives and reps will complete the action items during the meeting. Students will also confirm if the 3rd week of October works for their college. October 19th-23rd is tentatively when signing of the banner will take place (event). Each college will be assigned a day to come sign the banner and receive a boxed lunch and bottle of water. Distribution of lunch will take place during the week to adhere to social distancing guidelines. The banner will sit on 2-8ft tables for signature. ASG and DDEI will join to distribute the meals. Vanessa Lewis,
Cheri Goforth and Nakia Dedner are set up to manage the tables from 11:30-1:00 each day. Nonetheless, ASG reps are needed as well. After the ASG meeting Nakia will forward the final draft of the diversity statement and action items to Dr. Gittens for approval. Once approved, Nakia will forward the final statement to Creative Services (CS) to execute printing. The banner will hang in the Student Center after all students sign the banner. This event will take place in front of the UAMS fountain.

Project 2–Word Cloud
The student body was invited to tell ASG in 1-2 words, what diversity meant to them. The words were collected via survey and compiled to create the word cloud artwork. This too will hang in the Student Center since this is where many students hang out. This project is slated for completion in late October. We thought involving all UAMS students would be a great way to represent the students ASG serve.
The goal is to have all task completed by October 30th. Word cloud draft was approved 9/28/20.
