SGA holds 4th regular session meeting

The University of Guam Student Government Association held their 4th regular session meeting on Friday, Oct. 5, 2018.

SGA president Evander DeGuzman called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. Representatives from different student organizations were in attendance.

Several bills were introduced by the SGA senators and put up for discussion. An act introduced by senator Benjamin Morita was approved by the council.

The act intends to provide funds to support a Thanksgiving event to be held at UOG.

An act introduced by senator Marilea Torcelino was also approved by the council after much deliberation.

“This 4th regular session was our first session in which a situation like this happened and it being my first term as a senator, it was very intense and serious,” Torcelino said.

The act approved intends to provide funds to support UOG’s ROTC Ranger Challenge team, who will be travelling off island to compete with other schools.

After the meeting, students were treated to a free dinner, courtesy of the SGA. The dinner was catered by Jamaican Grill.
