Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year.
What an exciting year this will be – a great football and basketball season, a new West Virginia University president and an exciting new freshman class.
It’s truly a great time to be a Mountaineer.
As your student leaders, we’re committed to helping make our student experience the best it can be, and we invite you to be a part of it.
Student Government Association is an exciting way to get involved on campus, to have your voice heard, to work on important issues and to make a difference.
There are many ways you can get involved.
You can attend meetings on Wednesday evenings, visit our blog at www.sga.wvu.edu, e-mail us with your concerns, initiate a program or even run for office.
We hope you will take opportunity this year to join us in making a difference at WVU.
Your voice matters, and that is why this year SGA is expanding our Speak UP campaign to include SGA Across Campus – in which we’ll move one SGA meeting each month to another location around town.
We invite you to join us to speak up about issues that are important to us – and together we can make a tremendous difference.
Over the coming months, SGA is going to address some big issues facing campus.
First, we continue to work for club sports.
Hundreds of WVU students participate in club sports, and we know that those who do perform well in the classroom, on the field and yet the teams are grossly underfunded.
We’ll also continue the fight to lower textbook costs, and we’ll lead the way to fund a
new student health center because we all deserve a quality center to provide physical and mental care.
We are all so lucky. We are Mountaineers.
We belong to a proud tradition expanding well over a century and one that has included some remarkable men and women, spectacular events and an institution steeped in pride.
We should join together as students to be good fans, good students and to let our voices be heard on important student issues.
If we do that, we’ll make WVU an even better place.
We hope to hear from you. Visit www.sga.wvu.edu or e-mail us at Jason.Zuccari@mail.wvu.edu or Whitney.Peters@mail.wvu.edu.
Let’s Go Mountaineers.
