Governance

 * Open up the budget completely. There is no excuse not to. Dyp11 15:10, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Democratic involvement for all students, staff, and faculty in decision-making processes ranging from the budget to hiring. --Amq10 17:42, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Agreed, make all aspects of Hampshire participatory. Move as many positions as possible over to students. This can be extremely beneficial in, say, cleaning jobs. More jobs for students and greater sense of responsibility to the campus. Dyp11 23:30, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Hampedia

 * Make all Hampshire processes (hiring, firing, etc) available on Hampedia Dyp11 15:10, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Hampshire Halloween

 * This event just doesn't live up to its history. I propose we stop making such a thing of it (less or no funding) to avoid all of the red tape and organization, and let it happen on its own. Dyp11 15:10, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
