USG worked hard last year with the LAIS language department to stop certain language classes from being cut. Unfortunately there was a lack of enrollment for some of these classes and the funding moved elsewhere in the LAIS department.
If you feel that the language program should be added to in the future, and not cut, please make a new post and get people to vote for it. USG will fight for you if you show there is a need.

Hi!
Hopefully everyone noticed that decorating graduation caps was not only allowed, but encouraged! We’re glad enough students wanted to see it happen!
Love,

Campus,
First of all, USG would like to apologize for all of the confusion and our error over the elections. It was determined after elections closed that the ticket that held David and Stephanie’s name was actually ineligible. USG made the mistake by putting them on the ballot; we knew the election packet was turned in late, but we did not realize it was a blatant violation of our bylaws. If we would have known this prior, their names would not have appeared on the ballot. Due to this mistake, and the fact that the ineligible candidates won the election, we are reopening the elections for the Student Body President and Vice President positions.
This election is open to any students who are interested in the positions of Student Body President and Vice President. A new timeline has been created, and is as follows.
April 16th: Election packets available for…

So, as a yik-yaking student who isn't really into the farcical dramedy of student government, but is weighing in because he's annoyed at injustice, here's my thought: All that the article said was:
"...Candidates must submit the petition during the stipulated time period. Failure to enter such petition before the date of closing of nominations will prohibit the candidate's name from appearing on the ballot" - Article IX.A.3.b
Basically, their position on the ballot was invalid, but that's the fault of the people in control of the ballot.
The article says nothing about being disqualified from being elected- merely appearing on the ballot. So, basically, Dave and Stephanie won in the same way that a write in candidate would.

I like having a professional looking graduation, is there a petition to permanently shelve discussion on this?
