SGA Highlights. Written by: Jenny Fang.

Bills S.1 and S.2 have now officially been signed 

S1: Taste of the World Bill 

As part of SGA’s partnership and sponsoring Taste of the World with Multicultural Student Council (MSC), this bill states that SGA contributes:  

  • A total of $4,620
    • $2400 for tables 
    • $2620 for merchandise: shirts, cups, bags, and buttons 

S.2. Student-Athlete Seats 

Bill S.2 is an amendment to the SGA Bylaws that proposes two seats in the senate be reserved for varsity student-athletes. This bill is in place so that student-athletes may be accurately recognized so that there is an accurate representation of the Stetson athletic department (SAAC).
