SGA returns to discuss University vaccine policy
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 reports on an SGA meeting about vaccine policy, course evaluations, elections and the Judiciary.
- The News-Letter reported that Yu raised concerns about international students receiving FDA-approved vaccines after WHO-approved doses, saying, “Our big concern is that there is no scientific proof about what happens if you have two mixed vaccine shots within a short period of time.”
- The paper reported that Huang was preparing an email asking the University to take responsibility if mixed vaccinations harmed students, saying, “We really do regard Hopkins as our second home, so we do want to see the school come through on this initiative, at least providing the security that if anything goes wrong, Hopkins would be there for us.”
- The article says the written message was tabled for another meeting so it could be reviewed.
- The reporter writes that Yu presented an open course-review platform, while the article says the CSE proposed banning candidates from sending mass emails and that the motion passed unanimously.
- According to the article, all four current Judiciary members were confirmed unanimously, with a fifth member still to be recruited.
