ASI’s Board of Directors will hold a closed session regarding possible legal action against Six-One-Nine Graphic Design Company at Wednesday’s meeting.

Postbaccalaureate Director Mohamed Hamada wrote legislation calling for “proper legal action” to be brought against Six-One-Nine in an attempt to regain the $5,000 deposit paid to the company last September.

“Most of ASI wants to let it blow by,” Hamada said. “But I am curious to see if we can get the student’s money back.”Hamada believes the legislation has a fair chance of passing. However, the board’s discussion of the matter will not be public due to law, said ASI President Eric Guerra.

Hamada is against a closed session discussion.

In a February interview with The State Hornet, Six-One-Nine owner Ron Kipnis expressed that he would “definitely” fight any lawsuit brought on by ASI. Kipnis maintains that his company did what they were hired to do.

Also on the agenda for the meeting are resolutions dealing with the proposed professor rating system, the appointment of a new Director of Arts and Letters support for various university-related state legislation.

Hamada will introduce a resolution that would provide $5,000 for the ASPECT system, a student-run professor rating system for Sac State. The money would be used to purchase a server for the system should the university fail to cooperate with ASI.

“The university is giving us trouble,” Hamada said. “The system needs to interact with the University Computing and Communications System to allow professor feedback.”

Hamada classified the issue of needing the $5,000 as a ‘worst-case scenario.’

Guerra will appoint the new Arts and Letters Director, which has been vacant since February 12 when former Arts and Letters Director Zachary Donahue was approved to take the vacant Vice President of University Affairs position.

Guerra said only two eligible students applied for the position. The newly appointed director will serve until July 1st.

Guerra also wrote resolutions calling for support for a statewide bond act, a state assembly bill, and a joint housing resolution between ASI, CSUS, and the city of Sacramento. Another resolution asks the Board to commend Assemblyman Darrell Steinberg for his support of Sac State students.
