1. SGA passes resolution denouncing riot ----------------------------
Tonight the Student Government Senate passed a resolution denouncing the
riot that occurred on Redstone Campus last Wednesday. This action, along with
the Inter-Residence Association’s public condemning, sends a strong message
that students are disappointed in their peers that participated in the violent
and costly demonstrations. Please celebrate safely and in a positive way to
avoid issues such as last week’s riot.
If you would like to see the SGA Resolution or the IRA Statement you can
stop by the SGA office, B-156 Billings Student Center.
