This week in GSSC: Picking and choosing

GS students vying for a chance to join the General Studies Student Council spent some time in the hot seat Tuesday night, with the council interviewing candidates for open positions. Chris Meyer reports from GSSC’s second meeting of the academic year:

  • A fond farewell: In two separate measures, the council earmarked a total of $5,700 in the senior fund for graduation events, some of which will be dedicated to an event for fall semester graduates at Faculty House on Nov. 27.
  • Selective: According to GSSC President Jennifer Wisdom, there were 30 applicants for 10 available positions on the council, making this year’s application process more selective than in the past. The council interviewed 17 of those applicants at its meeting Tuesday night. “In my past time on council, we’ve had to pull legs to get people to apply,” Wisdom said. The council decided on who would get a handful of the positions last night, but others won't be decided until next week.
