SGA Announces the Results of the Student Body Election and Wyrick Proposals

After an official vote count, SGA would like to announce the results of the Spring 2014 elections. They are as follows:

Student Body President and Vice President: Jordan McGee/Addison Reed

Senior Class President: Cody Miller

The Wyrick Fund is generated through a $3 fee paid each semester by all full-time students along with $75,000 from the Office of the President. The current amount in the fund is $342,235.90. The following Wyrick proposals passed:

1) Campus Security Camera with a projected cost of 114,400

2) Construction of net around the Betty and Bobby Recreation Fields with a projected cost of $144,650

3) PSU Outdoor Tables with a projected cost of 82,483.50

4) Bear Line Shuttle Stop Bench with a projected cost of $2,264.90.

5) Key Card Reader at Betty and Bobby Recreation Fields with a projected cost of $25,520

Due to the limited funds of the Wyrick Fund, only the first three proposals will be funded.

Thank you to all the Missouri State students who voted in this election.

SGA Commissions Seeking Student Commissioners

September 18, 2012 by Riana Sears

The Student Government Association’s Elections, Wyrick and Sustainability Commissions are currently seeking students to serve during the 2012-13 academic year.

The Elections Commission reviews the Elections Manual, secures a timeline for the following election and researches how to increase voter turnout. The Elections Commission also reviews petitions for candidacy, evaluates actions that potentially violate the Elections Manual and validates the election results.

Student members of the Wyrick Commission will assist in researching and approving or rejecting proposals for projects submitted directly by students, such as the Parking Counters in Bear Park South.

Similarly, students serving on the Sustainability Commission are charged with assisting in the development of sustainability initiatives. This includes distributing the Sustainability Fund for projects, previously including the bike rental program and hydration stations.

Student commissioners cannot currently serve in the Student Government Association or be the President or Vice President of any other student organization.

Those interested in joining any of the commissions are encouraged to email SGA@missouristate.edu/

For more information, please contact Riana Sears, Chief Communications Officer at Riana21@live.missouristate.edu.
