How can SGA represent students if they are not holding Senate meetings?
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 the SGA’s missed Senate meetings, student engagement and transparency.
- The News-Letter reported that the SGA met Oct. 1 for the first time in three weeks, after meetings on Sept. 17 and 24 were cancelled.
- The paper reported that Executive Vice President Dean Chien said meetings would be held when there was legislation or a guest presentation, adding that “There is a lot going on and from a legislation standpoint, we have a lot coming down the pipeline.”
- The article says the SGA’s website had incorrect officer information and that the latest publicly uploaded meeting minutes were from Feb. 19, more than six months earlier.
- The reporter writes that the SGA continued efforts including a Black student caucus, the O-Week activism fair and plans for Wellness Week, and had heard a proposal for a Hopkins Town Hall.
