SGA fills four new positions

The Student Government Association filled four positions Tuesday after nominations and votes.
The four positions filled were pro-tempore, senate parliamentarian, historian and campus life and service chairman.
Cody Hatten is the new pro-tempore for SGA. The duty of a pro-tempore is to step in for the vice president if he or she is not able to be at the weekly meetings.
“I plan to work with the legislative branch to be a clear line of communication between the legislative branch and the executive branch,” Hatten said.
Tré Staples, new SGA parliamentarian will go through the bylaws to determine if there needs to be any changes made for the upcoming year.
The new SGA historian Rajesh Kodali’s job is to record the minutes of the senate meetings.
Haley Breeden is now the campus life and service chairman. Her duty is to serve as a liaison between the students and the senate.
The campus life and service chairman helps students with any problems they may have with the campus and relay problems to the senate.
Vice President Lila Mangus said these four positions needed to be filled because the previous position holders either had to resign or graduated.
“The historian had graduated in December so we had to quickly fill her position,” Mangus said. “The campus life and service chairman, along with the pro-temp, stepped down because of time conflicts.”
The positions will stay filled with the current officers until new staff members are elected in April.
