Alexander said she thinks the scholarship is good motivation for students to work hard. It is a great incentive for returning students. The Student Government Association started plans to redesign its Web site last January, but it wasn't until this summer that the new Web site was completed. It includes polls for student opinions, a student comment card, a chat room and a list of events taking place on campus. There is also a bulletin board, where students can log on to make comments or suggestions.
Students can receive a reply within the week, the day or the hour.
SGA President Ben Alexander said the Web site is designed to help SGA and students. Students get involved for a small time but do not really feel a part of things, so we want to make them a valuable part of things that we will be doing on campus. House Vice President Sarah Burleson said the theme of the Web site is increasing student involvement. Alexander said the Web site has already received 800 guests since the beginning of August. He said he hopes it will make students feel comfortable communicating with House members.
