GSA March Council Meeting

If you made it to the AGM, thank you!

Unfortunately, we were shy of a few students and were unable to meet quorum; however, it was voted among the present current council members to move the AGM agenda to the council.

All the membership (you) are invited to our March council meeting taking place today, Thursday March 22nd 2018 at 6:00PM in our GSA Boardroom. You can find our boardroom opposite the entrance to The Phoenix. Enter through that door and walk up the stairs to enter.

We will be voting on items found in our agenda here from the AGM today. Click the link below to get access to our AGM documents.

Please come out if you are interested! The existing council will vote on the agenda items but you can let your voice be heard.
