The Hot Shot Racket

Constance Jones
Members started trickling in to the meeting.

After the beginning minutes of the Student Leadership Council meeting on March 15,  there was a discussion about the LB policy that states there must be no alcohol on school trips, even if you are 21 years or older.

The next item on the agenda was a discussion about the Hot Shot Cafe.

Ian Priestman, a business and supervision teacher at LB, started discussing the possibility about changing the administration to the business department, instead of the SLC.

"Most business classes are theoretical," said Priestman "the business classes will get to use the Hot Shot as a practical way to do business."

Though there will be changes to the Hot Shot if this idea is voted in, Priestman assures that the management won't.

"We want a seamless transition for the Hot Shot. The workers will stay the same and the supplies," said Priestman.

Priestman also pointed out that the workers will be able to put on their resumes that they have real world experience.

Some of the changes will possibly include installing very needed 120° security cameras, as the Hot Shot's tips have been stolen and other thefts have taken place.

It will cost around $1,500 to install the cameras, but as Kevin Peña said "It [the security camera cost] may seem expensive, but I think it's worth it."

The other change will be to paint the Hot Shot a neutral color, so that it can be used as an art galore. This will cost around $500.

The SLC plans on paying for the security cameras, and will have the Hot Shot pay for the painting.

The Hot Shot will have some changes to come, but it will still offer the same service to LB.
