A cookbook will be coming to Moorpark College from the Classified Senate, featuring recipes from their members as well as other contributors to be offered to everyone on campus.
The Classified Senate is going to use the proceeds of the cookbook for scholarships for higher education for its staff and, eventually, for students as well.
“It’s a way to get our campus community involved again,” said the Kim Watters, president of the Classified Senate. “We’re just out of touch with each other, so it’s just a way for us to have a little more camaraderie.”
According to its website, some of the Classified Senate’s objectives are to address the non-bargaining concerns of the classified employees and to work with college management to promote campus community involvement, personal development and collegiality.
Students can participate by submitting a recipe of their own. There are many different categories to choose from, including special categories for diabetics and vegetarians.
“If students want to participate, that’s great,” said Watters. “They can submit their recipe and then get it published.”
In an effort to bring the Classified Staff together, and to make money for their scholarships, the members of the senate will be putting together this cookbook filled with recipes ranging from main dishes, to desserts, to drinks.
“This is a campus cookbook, therefore we would like to include all faculty, staff, students, administrators and managers…everyone,” said Watters in a message about the cookbook on the Classified Senate website.
“That’s such a cool idea, I can’t wait for it to come out,” said Sierra Cook, a 17-year-old bio-chemistry major at Moorpark College.
Recipes can be submitted by Feb. 26. To submit a recipe, go to: http://www.moorparkcollege.edu/assets/pdf/classified_senate/MC_Cookbook_RecipeForm.pdf.
