The Student Government Assembly met for the first time after the winter break Jan. 17 to discuss, among other things, Senator Danielle Kelly, who will no longer be with the SGA because she is in violation of its attendance policy.

Kelly has made it known that she intends to resign due to time constraints. The SGA would like to give her that opportunity, but they have been unable to reach her.

If they can’t reach her this week to ask for her resignation, she will be removed from the SGA at the next meeting.

This coming week the SGA will vote to approve an additional amount for the homecoming court budget. The SGA is sponsoring the homecoming court, which will comprise six people.

At last week’s meeting the Metro cycling club asked for a $600 budget, which would allow them to host a cycling race in March. The SGA will vote on whether or not to approve the budget this week.
In the next few weeks the SGA will meet with the Department of Information Technology to determine how to make the MetroConnect website more student-friendly. At the meetings, the SGA will discuss what they like in other websites that might be integrated into MetroConnect.
