Coming Clean

By Manny González, SF SGA Co-Chair, Spring 2011

One of the main purposes of this article is to make explicit the goals and aspirations of SGA. By virtue of student government, consider this our “State of the Union” address regarding all matters SGA.

Each student pays student activity fees that directly fund the SGA and its activities of advocacy, professional development, and community building. We remain cognizant of the source of our funding and ensure that responsible spending and transparency are promoted. The SGA now publishes the budget that we utilize each semester and invite all students to observe and attend our monthly meetings (first Sunday of the month from 10pm-12pm).

The SGA is responsive to input from the student body, across all programs, in how to better serve the Alliant community. For this reason, the SGA will be holding a Feedback Forum where students will be invited to provide general suggestions and ask questions of their SGA representatives. We will be requesting constructive input into current projects on which we are working, such as SGA’s efforts in remodeling and redesigning the kitchen. While we won’t be able to create a shuttle service to BART during finals week, we will be able to provide the rationale behind why proposed projects may be unfeasible. Additionally, we will be asking for more specific feedback of how to effectively serve the student body.

If you are unclear who your SGA representative is, they are all listed on our office door (located next to Katie Rosenfeld’s office). If you do not have a representative and are interested in serving on SGA please contact us, as we would welcome new members. At any rate, if you have any questions, please feel free to address them in person, during our monthly meetings, or direct them to sfstudentgov@gmail.com. Finally, if you would like to leave anonymous feedback, a “suggestion box” is also located on the SGA door.

We continue to welcome your ideas and appreciate your input, and look forward to working with you all in building a better campus and enhancing student life.
