Student Affairs Committee approves government posts
The Student Affairs Committee of Student Congress approved 64 student appointments to various committees of student government during its meeting Thursday night.
Committees that received appointments include the Textbook Pricing Committee, the Rape Awareness Committee and the Student Advisory Committee to the Chancellor.
Students who applied for appointments first had to be interviewed by Student Body Vice President Alexa Kleysteuber. Those that received approval from Kleysteuber were supported unanimously by committee members.
The meeting also included deliberation over a resolution to call for the preservation of West House, which the UNC Board of Trustees approved for demolition in its Wednesday meeting.
Congress members also discussed a resolution that would allow voter registration drives in residence halls and would protect campaigning in residence halls during student elections.
