Elections are underway for Homecoming Court and Freshmen Senators. Homecoming elections and voting for the Homecoming Court will both end tomorrow. 

Registration to be on Homecoming Court closed on Sept. 20. The requirements for being on Homecoming Court included being a full time student with a 2.5 cumulative GPA, a member of two campus organizations and free of academic or disciplinary probation. During the Homecoming halftime show, the Homecoming King and Queen will be announced.

The duties of the King and Queen include representing the student body in a respectful and dignified manner at various events. Students have the opportunity to vote for representatives. 

The Student Government Association elected senate consists of students who look to improve Southeastern. Incoming freshmen have important perspectives to contribute. Therefore, SGA offers a chance for incoming freshmen to be elected as senators. The requirements include being in one campus organization and being a full time incoming freshman that is free from academic or disciplinary probation. Election results will be announced after elections which start on Sept. 26 at 8 a.m. and close at 5 p.m. on Sept. 28. Voting will be done electronically using individual student’s W number and their student account password. Results will be announced in the Student Union Breezeway directly after voting closes.

The elected senators will represent the student body. Senators may pass legislature and review the SGA’s policies to recommend changes within them. As outlined in the Freshmen Senator Packet, specific duties may include making changes to the SGA’s budget, officer nominations and the ability to impeach any officer under guidance of the Constitution and Bylaws.

Full details are listed inside the university’s SGA constitution.
