SGA discusses on-campus housing for upperclassmen
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 a meeting about student-group funding, campus life and housing for upperclassmen.
- The paper reported that SHARE sought funding by becoming a Special Interest and Hobbies group; the reclassified club will receive funds in 2015–2016.
- The article says Janice Bonsu explained that the Dean of Student Life decides funding, while a proposed neutrality clause would give all groups equal access to grants; a related bill was due at the next General Body Meeting.
- The reporter writes that Kevin Shollenberger described changes to orientation and plans for a new upperclassmen dorm in 2016, with options including themed housing and faculty involvement.
- The article adds that Terry Martinez planned a Greek Life summit, while Kyra Toomre was working on school traditions, alumni connections and possible funding for events.
- According to the article, more than 14,000 condoms were distributed last year, with SGA funding two-thirds and the Hopkins Health and Wellness Center funding one-third; Camilla Dohlman said supplies ran out quickly.
