It's Blitz Week

This week is Student Government's annual Blitz Week where we put on events all week to reach out to the student body to better meet their needs.  Monday's event was Carnival with Cabinet.  The weather forced us to change our plans a little bit, but we still met with students outside of Library West and gave away a bunch of free food.  Yesterday was Snacks with Senate in Turlington Plaza.  Today is the SG Exec Meet and Greet in the Reitz Union Grand Ballroom Salon A.  I hope you will make a point to stop by as I love talking to students and learning how Student Government can best meet the needs of the student body.  Thursday is Agency day on the Plaza of the Americas, and Friday is SG's first outdoor movie night.

I want to give a special shout out and a BIG thank you to Action SG Chairwoman Sally Cohen and her Action SG Staff.  Sally has been working tirelessly to promote SG events and initiatives all year and is doing a fantastic job with Blitz Week.

2013 State of the Campus Address

Tomorrow, Tuesday, November 19th, I will be giving the annual State of the Campus Address. The address covers the status of Student Government and highlights new initiatives and projects undergone by all three branches of government. The event will be in the Reitz Union Grand Ballroom from 7 to 9 p.m. I strongly encourage all students who are available to attend this address, as it will be very informative and interesting. There will also be free food and giveaways along with the important updates about the exciting things that are happening here at UF. 

There are a plethora of people inside student government that have been doing extraordinary things during my administration that have helped us progress as a university. Many of the amazing on-campus organizations will be tabling during the event and giving out information about what they accomplish and why they are continuously looking for new members. As for me, I will be speaking about my administration and how I am striving to improve the amount of transparency that Student Government provides the student body, as we are a liaison between the students and the administration. 

Those of us who have chosen to be involved in SG spend our time trying to make the experience of everyone here as enjoyable as possible, and for that reason I recommend everyone comes out to listen and learn about how we are doing that. If you can't attend in person, the event will stream on Google plus under the SG Google plus account.
