Seemingly in response to the opinion piece attacking SGA last week in the Red and Black, SGA President Katy Bowers has an opinion piece today entitled “SGA requests opinions of all”.
I have quite a few comments about her opinions, so I am going to post my responses line by line.
Creating change in a community of [...]
It seems that SGA Vice President Ali Gibbons has resigned.
The University Council webpage lists Vice President, Student Government Association as “Pending Replacement” (image above) and Ms. Gibbons’ name tag has been removed from outside the SGA office.
Hatin’ SGA will have further coverage on this breaking news.
Last year the University of Georgia administration took down The Key, a grade reporting website. The Student Government Association was charged with putting The Key online, and they have failed.
As such, the editor of the Ruddle Report, Paul Ruddle, has made available an Excel file with the 1999 through 2006 Key data.

This event is an SGA run event, and as [...]
In case you haven’t seen it, SGA Press Secretary Jeremiah Johnson (frequent commenter) started a Facebook group called “Keep SGA!” with the hopes of convincing you to vote to keep SGA on campus.
More like conniving students into believing lies:
Without SGA this year…
- There’d be no online Key
Dead wrong!
The Black Tie Party saved the Key. [...]
The Red and Black has acknowledged its mistakes yesterday and has printed a front page correction.
The Red and Black calls yesterday’s multiple screw-ups “a reporter’s error.” Even if this was the fault of the reporter, it would still be interesting to see who in SGA gave this faulty information to the reporter.

Today the Red and Black printed a front page article on the upcoming SGA elections and the possibility of SGA being abolished. The article talks about the vote that takes place every 4 years, where students can decide whether or not the Student Government Association should stay around for another 4 years. On [...]
