			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At today&#8217;s weekly GBM, the UA funded $951 of Penn&#8217;s sole undergraduate Lunar New Year celebration, led by a team of dedicated individuals, including UA member <a href="http://pennua.org/members/representatives/amanda-young/">Amanda Young</a>. The organization that has traditionally hosted the event pulled out at the last minute, and upon learning of this, an ad-hoc group of students immediately met to ensure that the most important celebration in many countries makes a strong presence at Penn.</p>
<p><a href="http://pennua.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/lunar-new-years-image.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-3021" title="lunar new years image" src="http://pennua.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/lunar-new-years-image-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="180" /></a></p>
<p>Authored by Vinay Rao, <a href="http://pennua.org/members/representatives/sakina-zaidi/">Sakina Zaidi</a>, and <a href="http://pennua.org/members/representatives/g-j-melendez-torres/">G.J. Melendez-Torres</a>, the UA also resolved to improve the academic environment for students within testing situations by making a few changes such as ensuring left-handed desks, increased <a href="http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/invigilator">invigilators</a>, adequate desk space, and clear time displays.</p>
<p>Finally, Associate Member Colin Kavanaugh and the Student Life committee is working with the University to prevent identity fraud by promoting the opportunity for students to change their PIN numbers away from the current Social Security Number-based PIN.</p>
