The Inter-Club Council, Student Activities, club advisors and club officers gathered together to discuss several changes during the Fall club advisor/officer luncheon.

The luncheon took place on Tuesday in Health Science 102.

During the luncheon, Amna Jara, coordinator of Student Activities, discussed changes to homecoming, general club information, as well as the upcoming Zombie walk.

Among the changes being made to homecoming, Jara announced that homecoming queen is open to transgender women.

“If you consider yourself a female we are not going to stop you from running for homecoming court,” she said.

This opens up more opportunity for all students to participate.

Another difference from last year’s homecoming festivities was the committee’s budget cut of $9,500.

As a result clubs are only given $250 for supplies.

Considering the budget for supplies last year was $400, clubs will need to fundraise if they want to make up the difference.

In addition, clubs must strike down their own floats themselves since the school can no longer afford to do so.

Along with Amna Jara ,Student Events Specialist Cynthia Chavez talked about future program and budget changes.

Chavez stated that this year, ASCC will be piloting a new program for the requisition forms to be used by the Physical Education department.

For the budgeting process, the school plans to use the Spend Map program as soon as October. If all goes well, the program to other clubs will extend by the spring semester.

Joseph Frausto, commissioner of the Inter-Club Council said, “I want to try improve the zombie run since it is also a club competition.”

He plans to also continue the food drive competition that he hopes to start Sept. 29 and end on Oct. 29 as a way to coincide around the same time the zombie run might take place.

Hey! My name is Vanessa Villasenor. This will be my first semester serving on the newspaper but hopefully will not be my last before I transfer. I am a journalism major and although it terrifies me to talk to people I don’t know it is also the reason I love this field so much. This field gives me a good excuse to cover up for me just being really nosey. Don’t get me wrong I do like a good chisme just as much as the next person but I also enjoy photography, listening to music that has substance, and binge watching foreign movies (subtitles are life!). .Besides that I’m just a fun-sized girl trying to enjoy life. You can find me on twitter: @Vanerebe95 and on Instagram: @nessarella17
