Russo's Big Plans for Lyndon
Student Government Association president Nicholas Russo has a lot of work planned for him and the SGA for the 2012 spring semester.
Russo wants to continue the progress of coming to a final decision on what company Lyndon will choose for a future food service. The two options are Sodexo or Aramark.
"I've been spending a lot of time considering and examining the proposals because they are 10 year contracts, and food service is one of the most significant impacts on student life," said Russo.
The SGA also plans on strengthening communications amongst students, in an effort to get a better grasp on issues and feedback from the student body. By doing so, The SGA will be "nominating and hopefully appointing a new SGA Communications and Outreach Vice President at our next meeting," said Russo.
Not only does the SGA want to reach out to students, but the community as well. Clubs like "ASSIST" are heavily involved in community service.
"The SGA as a whole, will continue to be aware of opportunities to provide community service to the NEK," said Russo.
The SGA also wants to help provide more transportation options for students. Currently, the Adventure Program has been running shuttles for students up to Burke Mountain. Russo says he would like to see more transportation opportunities such as "Drunk safety" Vans.
"Castleton has a very successful ‘safe ride' van program aimed at providing safe transportation, particularly for situations when students may be intoxicated," said Russo.
