BSA Weekly News Letter
September 22nd - 28th
Letter From The President
Morgan Franklin
Dear BSA Family,
I am excited to announce that we are officially an active member of the Multicultural Leadership Council and am looking forward to collaborating with other groups over the course of this year!
This week we have a couple of great events! First, the Academic Affairs Committee has put together an amazing Majors / Minors Panel for our First Years and Sophomores. We will have a panel of current students as well and the head of multiple departments in attendance to answer any questions that you may have concerning moving forward in whatever major you are interested in declaring. Secondly, it is Parent's Weekend and we hope to see you and your families at our Trivia Brunch this saturday!
We have had around 60 first years apply for Mentors, so now we need our Upperclassmen Men and Women to step up and apply as well so that our First-Years can have mentors.
Our next General Body Meeting on Monday September 30th, will be very important!
- Mentor / Mentee Matching
- Freshman Representative Elections
- Collection of $10 BSA Dues
If you are interested in having a leadership position and running for Freshman Representative ( the only sitting First-Year E-board Member) please e-mail Valencia Clement (Valencia.Clement@Vanderbilt.Edu) and prepare a 3-5 minute speech to present to your peers about why you should be elected for Monday September 30th.
We will not order t-shirts until we have an idea of how many people will be active members. Please remember to bring your dues to this meeting!
Have an awesome week!
