SGA Senate discusses increased representation of graduate students

A new senator was appointed in the Student Government Association Senate at a meeting Friday. The senate also addressed concerns about their outreach and graduate student representation. Brandon Vasquez, a first-year finance major, was elected as a university at-large senator by a unanimous vote. Vasquez is a commuter student and based his campaign on addressing the concerns of engagement opportunities for commuter students through clubs and on-campus organizations. “I’m seeing that many universities in present country hold hybrid or fully online options for commuter students to participate in these clubs and attend events,” Vasquez said. Vasquez is part of the Campus Activities Board and was the student president his senior year of high school. Vasquez said although he is a commuter student and involved with multiple groups, he is committed to SGA. “I tend to be pretty manageable with my time, and I have absolutely no problem being a part of multiple groups,” Vasquez said.
