With the spring semester and school year winding down, the student body of Rollins College is beginning to see results from the hard work of the Student Government Association over the past year.
Through Senator Cecily Schaefer-Spritz's legislation and work with Athletic Director Phil Roach, SGA was able to get another elliptical machine in the gym at the Alfond Sports Center. Also on a trial basis beginning April 17 until the end of the school year, the Alfond Sports Center will be open until 1 AM on weekdays for students who find it hard to fit exercise into their lengthy schedule. Many students who work or take night classes at the Hamilton Holt school will now be able to make their schedule more flexible to use the athletic facilities. After numerous petitions, e-mails, phone calls, and discussion, Rollins responded to the voice of the students.
Another senator has been working hard with the dining services of the college to provide more variety regarding healthy foods at The Grille in Dave's Downunder. Items that have been added to the menu include sandwiches, yogurt parfaits, fruit cups, and specialty dinners such as teriyaki chicken.
After weeks of campaigning and hard work, congratulations are due to Cat McConnell and Marc Zelina for being elected SGA President and Vice President for the upcoming year. Both individuals have a lot of great ideas to implement at Rollins College and will serve to better the college for both faculty and the student body.
Congratulations are also due to Elise Letanosky, who worked extremely hard for nearly a month as the Elections Committee chair, assuring that everything went smooth during campaign and election week. Last weekend was the installation of the 14th President of Rollins College Dr. Lewis Duncan. Attending the ceremony among students and faculty were many members of the Student Government Association who we there to officially welcome Dr. Duncan into the Rollins College family. With mid-April approaching, Fox Day could be any day now, or by now it has already happened. Regardless, your SGA is adamant in their quest to finish strong this year while serving the student body to the fullest degree.
