Students travel to New York Fashion Merchandising students recently traveled to New York City during the Winter/Spring quarter break. The group visited the Metropolitan Museum, a Broadway Show, Mademoiselle Magazine, Bloomingdales, and Macys department store. The group also attended the Atlanta Apparel Mart on the weekend of April 7-8. of the day an estimated 250 students had voted. This year’s election surpassed the total number of students who voted in last Spring’s presidental election. Incombent vice-president Ralph Bumgardner and running- mate Angela Caspolich took 30.6 percent of the votes cast; while FXJiitical newcomers Kelly Dellinger and Tim Johnson gather only 5.3 percent. The official campaign started with a general meeting of all candidates one week before the general election. But many of the candidates had their election campaign planned several weeks in advance. “I felt pretty confident about the campaign,’’ said Hollingsworth, who will take over as SGA vice-president. “I thought that we had enough votes to win the election.” The new SGA President also had the same confidence as his running-mate. “I thought the we had a good chance at winning,” Adams said. ”1 believe we presented ourselves well to the students, and they thought we were the best choice. ” Both Adams and Hollingsworth agreed that if they weren’t elected into the SGA Executive Council this year, that they would run for the SGA Senate in the Fall. ‘‘I had already decided that if I lost that I was still going to work with the winners,” Hollingsworth assured. Both said that they were honored to be elected by the students and hoped that they would be able to represent | them to the best of their ability. “We’ll represent the^ students and their ideas,” ^ Hollingsworth said. ‘‘We were \ elected to sen/e them. ” ^ Michelle Hill, the reigning Miss Gaston College and a current senator in the SGA, was elected to the post of SGA Secretary. Hill ran unopposed in the election and took an overwhelming 95 percent of the votes cast. Many students failed to mark their ballet in lieu of the fact that she ran unopposed. Hill said she was excited to be elected to the Executive Council position, and hopes that she will be able to do a good job. Karan Poole, a political newcomer, was elected to the position of SGA Treasurer. Poole, a student assistant in the career counseling department, took a majority vote over SGA senator Kim Siebenthaler and newcomer Ashley Quinn. j Poole took 52 percent of thej votes cast, while Siebenthaler* claimed only 32 percent. Quinr^ had 11 percent of the vote. ( In the Senate race, onei incombent and one former senator were re-elected to the Student Senate.
