BY PAIGE COMEAU ’26 STAFF WRITER

On Feb. 7, the Student Government Association senate meeting opened with a reading of the agenda, which included E-Board updates, open floor and commission work. Following a land acknowledgment, SGA members noted that there would be a link with relevant information in their weekly email sent out to all senators.

E-Board updates included an update on the recent binder drive. As mentioned last week, only about 33 of the 70 binders requested could be ordered due to supply chain issues. However, after talking with the binder supplier, SGA was able to obtain the remaining 37 binders, all of which will arrive by the end of

March. Also, as announced by SGA, Resident Advisor and Orientation Leader applications are now open and will be due on Sunday, Feb. 12, at 11:55 p.m.

Senate then moved to open floor, a space for senators to voice their updates and concerns. To begin, senators shared announcements.

The representative for the Student Athlete Advisory Committee announced an upcoming basketball game against MIT on Saturday, Feb. 11. She also announced that volleyball will have open play this week and that both soccer and rowing are fundraising.

Two representatives for Project Connect discussed updates for the Spring term, including new international and neurodivergent groups.
