Letter From the President

Xavierites,

I am extremely grateful to have wonderful colleagues like you, who encouraged and supported me during my campaign.  I have the opportunity and challenge to serve Xavier in a new way, and I am bubbling with excitement and anxiety.

The 2011-2012 Student Government Association Executive Board is committed to building on the legacy of excellence past administrations have established.  We promise to continue to the Xavier traditions we all love and to make improvements where necessary and possible. The seven of us have been working diligently since May to assure we can serve as the voice of the student body to administrators; that all students have interesting, fun and meaningful campus activities and initiatives to participate in; and that we all remain informed and engaged.

Please take time to check out each officer’s individual goals for the year.  Our overall goals for the semester are listed below, and my strategic plan for the year is available in the SGA office.

Can’t wait for a great year!  Best of luck to each of you.

Kaitie Gaddis
