March
April 6th, 2011
March seems to have come and gone about as quickly as VA snow can in the
midst of 60 degree weather.
And here we are, reflecting on another eventful month in the SGA. We
elected new members of the executive committee who will lead the SGA next
year: Nel Akerson and Mariah Elliott as Co-Presidents, James Souder as VP,
Dan Sigmans as Treasurer, and Alli Eanes as Secretary. Congratulations
again to them.
SGA helped with volunteering at the Calling and Career day, which was
another successful day in bringing organizations in for students to talk
with. It also gave students opportunities to review their resumes, have
practice interviews, and attend informative seminars. Special thanks to
Amy Springer and Jen Litwiller and others for their work on this day.
We also volunteered at the Commons Phase II dedication, where many guests
were on campus to view the grand opening of the renovated Commons and have
a special dedication service.
The Board of Trustees was also present this past weekend for their
semester meeting. SGA reported to the board to update them on current
happenings, and the Board affirmed our work.
SGA has also been working with a new strategic plan. We have approved
this working document within the Senate as a way to have larger, long-term
projects. This document will be passed on over the years, with chance for
revision at the end of each term. You can find the document attached if
you would like to review it.
Remember to take advantage of the outstanding Attachment Conference coming
up…it is an opportunity you won’t want to miss!
May you all finish out the semester strong. Stay focused, and have fun as
spring arrives!
