Two SGA senators resign


Two Student Government Association senators resigned from their positions shortly before the SGA general board meeting on Monday.

Sens. David Walter and Ottorino Schincariol resigned, stating that the amount of time needed to dedicate to SGA matters were having an effect on their academic progress so they could no longer serve.

“Something like this happens every year,” SGA President Marie Reimers said. “It’s sad to lose senators, but losing two won’t cause much of a disruption in SGA.”

Even with the loss of two senators, SGA still has enough senators to vote on resolutions in accordance with parliamentary procedure.

There are no plans to fill the empty seats in the Senate. However, if SGA Senate Leader Charles Mahone determines that the seats need to be filled, SGA will begin the election process in the spring.
