SGA spars over Spirit Week, plans events
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrases “sga” and “student government”.
Summary
- This News-Letter article reports on an SGA meeting about elections, student programs and upcoming events.
- The paper reported that freshman elections restarted after logistical problems, including candidates missing from the ballot; Kyra Toomre proposed a University-funded mass subscription to The New York Times or The Wall Street Journal.
- The article says Janice Bonsu reported that Deloitte was seeking SGA sponsorship for its diversity panel, which covers diversity in current events and the company.
- The reporter writes that Halloween buses would run from Mason Hall to Fells Point and back, while Bonsu said the University would not cover travel beyond 150 miles; participants discussed discounted Enterprise rentals.
