West Hall parking lot changes, a recent resignation and proposed changes for the RSC were among the topics discussed at the recent SGA meeting.
The primary topic discussed was the decision to reserve the West parking lot for upperclassmen only. After the last meeting, SGA representatives counted vehicles in the West parking lot to see how many freshmen and upperclassmen park there. It was determined that it would be worthwhile to propose the parking lot be for upperclassmen only to help replace the upperclassmen-only lot that was eliminated in the construction of the new suite-style dorm.
Among the many building changes in progress, SGA is continuing discussion on creating a game room in the RSC. Currently SGA feels the environment in the mini-gym and exercise area is unfavorable for playing quieter games such as pool and ping pong. The hope is to convert one of the classrooms in the RSC into a game and lounge area next semester.
Furthermore, Get Out the Vote efforts were discussed. Students can expect to see a partnership between the College Democrats and the new College Republican group on this effort. SGA will be fundraising for the organization.
Due to personal reasons, the Academic Affairs Committee (AAC) representative has resigned. Per SGA rules, SGA will bring in those that expressed interest in the position to the next meeting, listen to and ask questions of the candidates and vote in a new AAC representative.
SGA appreciates student input. Meetings are held weekly in the RSC Conference Room on Tuesdays at 8:30 p.m., and any questions or concerns may be communicated to any SGA representative or by email at sga@nwciowa.edu.
