Mission Statement: To continue to improve upon our efforts this year on campus, including the environmental Green Organization, our campus wide recycling program, the Food Service Committee, etc. We also plan on continuing and improving upon our huge annual events, including the Ski Trip, the Halloween Party, Senior Week, and our newly introduced 1/2 Assed Semi Formal. We also would like to continue our band competition, with a huge, off campus show for the finale. This year, thanks to your feedback, we saw to it that a bicycle rack was installed at the Photography Building, a piano is being made available for student use on campus and we have been working towards insurance for equipment in the Film Department, among many other things. Next year, aside from improving upon these accomplishments, we would like to see an increase in fitness opportunities for students, an increase in internet reliability and accessibility in the residence halls, repairing the broken lockers, to see a lounge area available for students on the West Side, and to see interest and awareness of the VASA club program increased, among many other things. As always, making the voice of the SVA community heard and getting results is our number one priority.
