SGA worked with two campus organizations to provide a venue for viewing the US Presidential debates. SGA and Student Life sponsored a three-day Men's Conference. SGA assisted in a mentoring project with students in the Upward Bound program and also assisted with a Thanksgiving Food Drive for the Frankfort residents. SGA also held a walk-through the dorms to express the importance of finishing the semester strong academically. The SGA is also working with Student Engagement and Leadership Development to finalize its 5-point Strategic Agenda that will ultimately improve morale, increase grade point averages and improve retention.
