SGA inducts freshmen, talks sexual assault
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 covers an SGA meeting about freshman senators, Halloween bus funding and planned discussions with President Ronald J. Daniels.
- The News-Letter reported that seven freshman representatives were sworn in, and that the Halloween bus bill passed with a $1,650 budget and service until 3 a.m.
- The paper reported that the Oct. 22 dinner with Daniels would cover health and safety, the SGA’s campus role, the new student center, and fraternity and sorority life.
- The article says Executive Vice-President Jack Bartholet raised concerns about student stress, campus safety and the role of off-duty police officers.
- The reporter writes that Bartholet called for more transparency about sexual-assault statistics, while Executive President Jason Plush mentioned plans including a sexual-violence committee and meetings about policy.
- The article adds that Bartholet said the SGA would work to improve perceptions of Greek life, while Senior Class Senator Amanda Lourenco said Greek life would likely be reworked rather than removed.
