For the
first time in history on February 2, 2016, the Student Association Senate President, Kai Malik, made a drastic adjustment to the upcoming meeting. The
President canceled the meeting and reserved spots at the historical “Battle of
the Red Dragons” event, so that the entire Student Association could finally
cheer on their team and show off their school pride.

Every Tuesday night at 6:30pm,
several students make the sacrifice to sit in the Waterfront room in Hunt
Union, for hours at a time to make a difference on campus. It has been brought
the Student Association’s attention that the athletic department does not feel
supported by them, due to the lack of their physical presence. But that all changed on Tuesday
February 9, 2016. After handling business of course, every member went from their suit and ties and then right up to the court-side!

It is in true fashion that the Student Association works hard and plays
hard as well. Now some outsiders looking in may say, “It’s just like the
Student Association Senate to always reserve a spot and get special treatment”.
What SUNY Oneonta students fail to realize is that their Student Association
makes daily sacrifices so that every student could have a better experience
during their time here. Even though they canceled their meeting on Tuesday,
thus increasing next week’s agenda, it was all worth it.
The students
were able to see their support as well as the athletes. This day will
definitely be a memorable one and hopefully it will become a Student
Association Tradition. Now that the game is over is back into suit and ties…
until next time.
