Constitution Vote Overturned
I am pleased to report that someone in SGA decided to enforce their own Constitution. This message was just emailed out to several parties, regarding the ratification of the new SGA Constitution:
After further review and a hearing on the complaint filed by Paul Ruddle, the Elections Committee of the Student Government Association in a [...]
Vote on SGA Constitution Challenged
The Red and Black finally picked up on this story (here).
The question here is that the SGA Constitution requires 10% of the students to vote in a “special election” for the SGA Constitution, before the Constitution can be approved.
So, how many students voted in the election? Well, it depends what the definition of “special [...]
Quote of the Day
When an anonymous student was told that the new SGA Constitution [side note, the approval of the new Constitution is being challenged.] allowed for more non-Senators to get appointed positions in SGA, this is what the person had to say:

This event is an SGA run event, and as [...]
Story of SGA Being Picked Up Across State
Peach Pundit, a multi-author blog on politics in Georgia, has picked up the story of the SGA vote. Here and here. In the comments on the first post, someone makes a comparison of the strength of Georgia Tech’s SGA compared to ours, and in the second post they posted the Fox 5 video.
I’m [...]
SGA Prez Has Problems With ‘Constition’
It seems that our venerable SGA President Jamie Peper is having some problems with her communication (one of her administration’s three main points) skills as of late. She sent this email out over quite a few campus organization listservs today:
*Vote Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday on OASIS in Student Body Elections!*
