The second floor of the Diana Center was filled with excited chatter as Barnard SGA members reconvened to discuss the upcoming year’s agenda. They were joined by the board of the McIntosh Activities Council (McAC), which hinted at the return of several much-anticipated Barnard events. Jessica Stallone and Rachel Kaplan bring you the highlights from last night’s SGA meeting:
First-year elections will be held this week! Students who are interested in running for President, Vice President, Secretary or Treasurer must turn in their intent to run forms, which are due today at 3 p.m., in order to run. The election process will kickoff with the Candidate Forum on Wednesday, Sept. 14, at 8 p.m. on the second floor of the Diana Center, where each candidate will give a short speech. Online voting (through eBear) begins at midnight on Wednesday, Sept. 15 and ends on Monday, Sept. 19 at 12 p.m.
In order to receive funding for this year, any club that is funded through SGA must send its president and treasurer to the FUEL funding meeting, which will be held this Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Last Spring, many students who did not have unlimited meal plans were disheartened to find that they had to use a meal swipe in order to enjoy the Spirit Day lunch. Because of changes in the meal plan policy, Barnard students will now have to use a meal swipe in order to eat at any of the Barnard event meals, including the upcoming Founder’s Day barbeque.
The Barnard Student Activities Fair will be held this Friday, Sept. 16, from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m.on Lehman Lawn.
