New Constitution Takes Effect
By: Traci Folk
Staff Writer
Two weeks ago the stu
dent body voted on and
passed a new Student Gov
ernment Association
constitution. But how many
of us actually read what we
voted for and know the
changes thathavebeenmade?
Many of these changes affect
the student body and are
important for the student
body to recognize.
One of the first changes
made was allowing the Stu
dent Activities Chairman to
be an active member on the
SGA board as well as on sev
eral smaller conunittees. This
is important for you as stu
dents because all full time
enrolled students at M-AC are
considered members of the
activities cormnittee. What
this means is that every stu
dent has a say in what activi
ties are plarmed, and in turn,
the chairman can take them
to the SGA. Our voice as a
student body will be heard,
but only if we get involved.
Another change in the
constitution that may be a
benefit to some students is
the Student Employment
Grievance Committee. For
mally the Affirmative Action
Committee, this clarification
in name is great for the stu
dents who did not realize this
conunittee existed. If you are
employed with the school,
such as M-AC work, and a
problem arises, you may
bringitbefore thiscommittee
which will hear and field
complaints.
Honor Court procedures
also have a new twist to them.
The purpose of Honor Court
is to de^ with violations of
