-The Feast Fest Organization Senate and Executive Board met Saturday for one final day of deliberations before their recess until February 21 begins. A measure that would drastically introduce ticket prices in 2012 and 2013 was first proposed Monday and, with a certain winning vote pending today, a group of four members of the Organization Senate filibustered the measure for seven hours Saturday, killing it off.
Fredrick Small, Amy Brenning, Lois Jenks, and Francoise Mandissois discussed such matters as baseball, the chef body, cranberry sauce, the internet generation, and reality TV in the successful all-afternoon attempt.
At 5 p.m. Saturday the deliberations were adjourned until February. The filibuster prevented the measure from passage in the 50-member Organization Senate, meaning it failed to reach the 10-member Executive Board.
