SGA Hosts “An Evening With Your Administration”

The Student Government Association is hosting its annual town hall tonight, January 21, from 5:30 to 7 in the Wool Ballrooms

This is your opportunity to speak directly to the administrators of our University, including Father Biondi, various vice presidents, the dean of your college or school, and other representatives of the administration.

The town hall will follow a round table format, with administrators seated with small groups of students, rotating regularly. Topics will be suggested for conversation, but students are free to discuss whatever issue may be of particular concern to you or the other students at your table.

Not only is this your chance to speak directly to the individuals running our university, but this is your opportunity to let SGA know what is important to you and how we should focus our efforts during the upcoming semester.
