During their weekly meeting, the Student Government Association endorsed three proposals brought forth by student groups.

• Students for a Sensible Drug Policy brought their proposal for an equalization of college sanctions for illegal alcohol use and illegal marijuana use to the Senate. The motion was passed 14-0 with multiple abstentions.
• Frack Off brought a proposal forth that would encourage the college not to sign leases for high volume hydraulic fracturing on land that Ithaca College owns. Motion passed 14-1.
• VP Trojanov and supporters of the program brought a proposal for SGA to endorse the Asian American Studies Program at Ithaca College. The motion passed unanimously.
