Fourth set of elections approaches
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 phrase “student council”.
Summary
- This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article covers Student Council’s interim leadership and planned presidential election.
- The News-Letter reported that Student Council had operated without an Executive Council president for several months under Brian Drolet and Nurain Fuseini, with elections planned for early October.
- The paper reported that the Board of Elections chose to hold the presidential election alongside the freshman class elections, after three earlier elections had been invalidated.
- The article says the runoff is between senior Soren Gandrud and junior Hyder Syed; freshmen will not vote, while some seniors will be allowed to vote.
- The reporter writes that Drolet said he and Fuseini were running Student Council temporarily and that its work was “definitely going okay.”
- The article adds that Student Council had not yet held a meeting, but its open weekly assembly was expected to begin within about a week.
- According to the article, the Student Activities Commission handled funding for student groups, with Treasurer Grace Gallick leading it and the finance committee overseeing the budget.
