There haven’t been any posts in a few days, so until SGA gets kicking again, enjoy this disney favorite, in italiano.

Vice President of Finance

The position of SGA Vice President of Finance has opened up for next semester, and I would like to formally announce my candidacy. I love the SGA, I love this school, and I want what’s best for both.

I have served as a senator for the Class of 2011 since the first semester of my freshman year. My freshman year, I sat on the Academic Affairs committee and chaired an ad-hoc committee to address issues of sexual assault. This semester, I have sat on the Student Life committee, founded and chaired the new Student Safety and Wellness committee, and co-chaired the faculty/student Safety Advisory Group, along with David Andres, Director of Strategic Projects. Although I have never served on the SGA Budget committee, I do have institutional financial experience, having sat on the faculty Planning and Budget Council for my entire freshman year.  I also helped to establish the new Entertainment Activities Council, which you all will vote on shortly.

For as long as I’ve been on the SGA, I’ve wanted to do more. I want to help this organization grow and I want to leave Trinity better than I found it. I know it sounds cliche, but I really mean it. Outside of the SGA, I’ve been involved with the Anti-War Coalition, Trinity Zen, the African Development Coalition, and most recently, Trinity Students Organized Against Racism (T-SOAR).

All I can ask of you is your trust, and your vote. I’d love to hear from you if you have a questions for me, concerns, general issues that you’d like me to bring to the SGA, pretty much anything. I always respond to email promptly, so please don’t hesistate. Andrea.Wise@trincoll.edu

Thanks so much, and I look forward to the vote in February.

Safety and Wellness Services at Trinity College

The Safety and Wellness Committee has created a new page on TrinitySGA.com that we hope will help you all know what Trinity offers by way of staying safe and healthy. If you navigate over to the “Services” tab at TrinitySGA.com, and click on the first link on that page, (or click here) you’ll find a list of the phone numbers/websites/information for stuff like the Campus Safety department, the Health Center, the Sexual Assault Responce Team, the Campus Safety Shuttle, etc.
