Council approves chairs
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 News-Letter article covers Student Council appointments, committee work and a survey of campus concerns.
- The News-Letter reported that Student Council approved Chantelle Schofield and Executive Vice President of Administration Priya Sarin as chairs of the Constitutional Reform Committee, approved Schofield as Parliamentarian and made Jackie Chan a COLA representative.
- The paper reported that the committee was created after debates about a new constitution and that Schofield and Sarin chaired its first meeting before their approval.
- The article says Sarin wanted council members’ opinions to shape the constitution, while Schofield said the chairs would be objective and should listen to members.
- The reporter writes that Schofield’s duties include explaining council procedure and that she wanted to shorten meetings under Robert’s Rules of Order.
- The article adds that Chan said she was interested in COLA because she understood the work involved in leadership, and that COLA members select leaders for positions including CultureFest and the Milton S. Eisenhower Symposium.
- According to the article, a Homewood Student Affairs survey found dissatisfaction with professors’ time with students and with dining changes, including the Saturday closure of Wolman Station; Vivek Iyer said many students disliked walking to Terrace.
