Proposed MSA bill would create a stipend for committee chairpeople
The Missouri Students Association Operations Committee discussed and passed a bill on Tuesday that would create a per-semester stipend of $650 for committee chairpeople.
If passed, the stipend would take effect in the fall semester of 2010 and effectively compensate not only committee chairpeople, but also the Senate Speaker and Senate Clerks.
The bill was written in order to recognize the work of committee chairpeople and their role in MSA. It also serves as an incentive to these individuals as a means to better MSA as a whole.
The full MSA Senate will vote on the bill on Wednesday.
