StuCo discusses student life improvements
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 the first 2002–03 StuCo meeting and its plans for student life, academics and budgeting.
- The News-Letter reported that the first meeting reviewed work since May; it also reported that the $30 Entertainment Pass offered free entry to student-run events and brought in $15,000 over the summer.
- The paper reported that the Class of 2003 proposed moving Spring Fair and Commencement back to the Upper Quad, while the administration planned to keep them at Garland and Homewood Field.
- The article says the meeting included discussion of “meal-equiv” at Levering and a push to reform the exam-reserves system.
- The reporter writes that Academic Affairs wanted old exams placed online and wanted to promote ethics in using them.
- The paper reported that $63 remained in the operating budget, while almost $1,200 was unaccounted for; it also reported that the account would be closed and that administrative costs would be reduced.
- The article reports new class and committee leaders, adviser Jeff Groden-Thomas, and that Groden-Thomas said he “likes the energy” of the JHU StuCo.
