Psychology sophomore Jacob Wong, who ran unopposed, was elected fora second term as president of the Student Government Associationwith 112 votes. Chemistry sophomore Ariel Reynolds, who also ran unopposed, waselected commissioner with 120 votes. SGA adviser and criminal justice Professor Tiffany Cox provided thetotals today for the balloting, which was conducted online lastweek. The two contested races will be this week with voting through 6p.m. Friday. Results will be announced May 14 through ACES email. A special election for the offices of vice president and treasurerwas scheduled because of an error on the ballot last week. The ballot listed Laura Belalcazar , criminal justice sophomore and SGA treasurer, and Mike Martinez, SGA commissioner and anthropology sophomore, as the candidates forvice president. In fact, Natalie Johnson, digital design sophomore, is runningagainst Martinez, and Belalcazar is a candidate for a second term as treasurer. Arielle Heidbrink , radio-television-film sophomore and current SGA commissioner, is challenging Belalcazar for treasurer. Cox said today that to be fair to Belalcazar , whose name was listed in two races, that a separate election wasnecessary. The ballot could not be corrected after it was availableonline. Students can access the new ballot through a link from an emailthey have received in ACES. Wong said today that because no one ran for secretary, he will fillthe position by appointment. Wong won the presidency for the 2011-12 term with 83 votes. Nobody ran against me, and that was disappointing, Wong saidafter today s SGA meeting in the health promotions office in Loftin Student Center. After the meeting, Wong said SGA will host a Region 6 Texas Junior College Student GovernmentAssociation conference in the fall, and plans must be completebefore the start of fall classes. Wong said he hopes to expand SGA committees during his second term, including adding a committee onsecurity. We d form real quick committees that would meet about specificincidents on campus, or things that we needed to be aware of orthings that we needed to take actions on, Wong said. But rightnow, what I m trying to do is I m going to get more involvementwith students, and so when a committee is formed, it will be formedprimarily of students that are non-executive members of SGA. Wong said that with a series of Pepsi with the President meetingsin the fall semester, SGA was able to stop individuals from parking along Howard Streetbetween the parking garage and Evergreen Street. Vehicles parkedthere prevented other cars and emergency vehicles from passingthrough. The college posted no-parking signs. Wong said he hopes to increase Sweet Treats events throughout histerm because he saw lots of student interaction with past events.Sweet Treats is an event in which SGA sets up a tent in the mall and talks to students about theirconcerns. Emails can be sent to SGA at SAC-studlife@alamo.edu. For more information, call Cox at 210-486-0835.
