SGA seat open for senator at large

Marshall University’s Student Government Association is looking for a student interested in making changes to the university by becoming the new senator at large.

Senate Parliamentarian Cody Hatten said the senator at large has the same tasks as the college senator but will speak on the university as a whole.

“An at-large senator is picked when a senator does not have a seat in his or her specific college,” said Hatten. “But they still represent the college they are in.”

Student Body Vice President Lila Mangus said the main obligations for the senator at large are to attend committee meetings and the senate meetings.

We are excited to see how many new students are interested in joining our team and bettering the Marshall University campus.

“The duties of a senator are to serve as the middle man between the students and deans of their college and SGA,” said Mangus. “They are also responsible for relaying any concerns or opinions of the student body to SGA during meetings. We are excited to see how many new students are interested in joining our team and bettering the Marshall University campus.”

Students can apply to be an at large senator on the SGA website.
