Bronshvayg reported that Saturday's Night for Haiti raised over $5,000 and that Brandeis has raised over $30,000 in total for Haiti-related causes.

The Senate chartered the China Cares Club, which will focus on raising money for and providing direct medical care to orphans in China; the Swimming and Diving Team, which was cut from the varsity sports program for the upcoming year; and the Custom Clothing Club, which will allow students to make and sell self-designed clothing. According to the club's presentation, the club will be expensive at first, but all proceeds from the sale of clothing will stay within the club and members hope that this will help offset costs. The Senate also chartered the Boxing Club, which will provide discounted lessons at a boxing gym. Members said that there has been a great deal of interest from people who want to learn to defend themselves and get in shape.

The Senate accepted a new constitution submitted by the Activist Resource Center that proposed creating new positions on the club's executive board, a new calendar and a new directory as well as changing the club's name to "Change Agency."

A proposal by the Brandeis Republican Club to change their name to the "Libertarian-Conservative Union" was not approved by the Senate.

The Senate then went into executive session, after which Abby Kulawitz '12 was confirmed as the new Executive Senator.
