SGA Semester Review: Student input yields results
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 Johns Hopkins News-Letter article reviews initiatives and events that it says the Student Government Association worked on during the semester.

- The paper reported that the SSD Committee sold $5 travel mugs, ran a Public Security Announcements contest and co-hosted Security Week.
- The article adds that Academic Affairs secured blackout exam dates and planned a peer-mentoring program for the Fall 2014 registration period.
- The reporter writes that the finance committee funded projects including Movember and condoms in the library, while the Appointments and Evaluations Committee proposed student groups for approval or denial.
- According to the article, the junior council organized a boat cruise and joined the senior council for a student-faculty social funded by a $1,000 Student Life grant.
- The News-Letter says the executive board began a monthly student-input event with free food, and that the group wrote to administrators about removing the intersession fee before the fee was later “elevated” for that year.
