Complaints about parking? Academics? Facilities? Dining? The HeAUrd That! website hears all.
“I don’t want it to be an outdated website that isn’t used,” said Senator Jackson Prewitt. “I want it to be useful for students so that SGA can reach it’s full potential to serve the student body.”
Part of that potential includes involving more students not only in the benefits of student government, but in its function.
In addition to the pizza and candy available at the HeAUrd That! event were fliers with information about how to get your feet wet in the SGA without a huge time commitment.
