SGA proud of budget control

In light of current economic woes across our country and the world, I must say I am proud of the Lyndon State College Student Government Association in their handling of the student activities budget.

The Lyndon SGA has lived up to its promise to provide the clubs and student organizations the proper funding while also managing to stay on point and on budget.

With spending less than half of the general fund this semester, we have ensured that the upcoming spring semester will have the proper funding for success.     

Another striking statistic is the growing participation in the SGA. The average attendance of a Lyndon SGA meeting has reached a new high of over 60 students.

This transparency is unseen in any other school across this state and even most businesses.

Throughout the course of this semester, I have spoken at a series of different classes, lectures, and events challenging students to get involved in their community by participating in the Student Government Association and I believe that the students at Lyndon have lived up to this challenge.

We have also set up a number of internal communities that address concerns in the school such as the Aramark Dining Services, Public Safety, IT, and Sustainability.

Every student at Lyndon can participate in these committees and I encourage you to do so by checking out www.lyndonsga.com.   

Every other Wednesday, we meet in ASAC 100 at 8pm. I hope to see you there and I welcome your thoughts and feedback!
