SGA discusses funding for Spring Fair 2018
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 covering student-group funding and campus policy issues.
- The paper reported that the SGA approved $861 for SLAM, a student hip-hop dance group, to register for two competitions.
- The article says Spring Fair had a $4,200 deficit and expected to remain $1,200 short for fireworks; later, its advisers said SGA funding could not be requested.
- The reporter writes that JHOC requested $620 for outdoor environmental-film screenings, but the funding discussion was postponed because of time limits.
- The News-Letter reported that members discussed possible limits on accommodation letters from the Student Health and Wellness Center, with Kwame Alston raising concerns about effects on students with mental-health issues.
- The article adds that the SGA tabled the accommodation-letter discussion until the following week.
