Suffolk University’s Student Government Association introduced an initiative to improve club event turnouts at its meeting Nov. 5. Class of 2028 Senator Mona Ammar, chair of the Public Relations Committee, announced “Pack the Room,” a workshop that will give club leaders the skills they need to host successful events that will take place Nov. 18. Ammar cited a lack of club engagement compared to previous semesters as the inspiration for the event. “Me and Kaylee [Sanchez] went to this club event which was known as a really big club in the past two years, and there [were] like four people who came,” she said. “We were like, ‘Why is this happening?’” Ammar and Sanchez, vice president of SGA, took to Instagram to try and answer this question. They noticed that many clubs were posting their event flyers just a day or two before their events were scheduled to take place.
