SGA responsibilities

This week marks the end of the Student Government Association elections, heralding the beginning of a new SGA administration. Unfortunately, the election process itself highlights the deficiencies of SGA this year. While events such as SGA Week have increased the visibility of this crucial organization on campus, the voting record for the Presidential and Executive Vice Presidential elections speaks of a general campus apathy towards the very body chosen to represent them. Less than three thousand students voted in the Undergraduate Presidential and Vice Presidential races, even less than last year’s low turnout of four thousand.
