S.G.A. SURVEY
At Spring registration stu
dents were surprised to receive
questionaires concerning the
effectiveness of the Student
Government Association.
The members of this organiza
tion were anxious to find out
if the S.G.A. was fulfilling
its purpose - to represent the
entire student body of the
Hazleton Campus.
The results showed that, on
the whole, students felt that
the S.G.A. is not as effective
as it should be.
A closer relationship between
the student body and represen
tatives of S.G.A., through
better publication of S.G.A.
actions, was among the stu
dent’s suggestions.
The students seemed t* feel
that if the members of the
S.G.A. would let the student:;
body know about S.G.A. plans
and aaifc for student suggestions,
the S.G.A. would be fulfilling
its purpose in a more complete
way.
These results were reported at
an S.G.A. meeting and each
representative agreed to do
his best to follow these sug
gestions .
