SGA discusses Spring Fair, student groups

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 reports on an SGA meeting about student groups, off-campus housing and the Spring Fair Music Festival budget.
  • The paper reported that the SGA approved the Actuarial Club and Dance Marathon; Mike Wu said approval allows room reservations, while Jason Heiserman said the groups could request funding.
  • The article adds that Dance Marathon planned an April 8 charity event, with proceeds going to the Children’s Miracle Network.
  • The News-Letter reported that decisions on Hopkins Tai Chi and Young Americans for Liberty were deferred; it listed four groups on probation and said UNICEF and a yoga group were rejected.
  • The reporter writes that the off-campus housing database was functioning but had not launched; possible additions included user comments, more search filters, a GoogleMaps template and property sorting, with completion hoped for by the end of the semester.
  • According to the article, about $17,500 was spent on the previous Spring Fair, while Dirzulaitis said, “We need 15 [thousand], we would like 30”; the committee planned to hire several local bands instead of one main act.
