SGA outlines plans for future student union
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
- The Johns Hopkins News-Letter article covers an SGA meeting on Career Center outreach, an environmental fashion show and plans for a student union.
- The paper reported that Career Center Communications Specialist Rebecca Shillenn presented the Center’s resources and goals, including more internships and greater use of Handshake.
- The article says Shillenn asked about working with the SGA on outreach, while Senator Soumi Haidara said the Center currently serves only upperclassmen.
- The reporter writes that Students for Environmental Action presented Planet Runway, a fashion show about fast fashion, and that a bill to fund it passed.
- The article adds that earlier student-union plans had stalled, but the SGA was considering renewed efforts.
- According to the article, Vice President AJ Tsang estimated the union would cost about $120 million, would not be completed before 2022 and would need public support; he suggested selling bricks for 99 cents.
