Kent State’s Undergraduate Student Government met for the second time this semester on Wednesday, Sept. 13. 

Here’s what USG covered in the meeting:

• Nate Glowacki, a senior theatre studies major, was also sworn in as senator for the College of the Arts.

• FlashFleet, the bike-sharing program on campus, is nearing the end of a three-year contract with the school. Administrator Chris John told USG members that a decision should be reached by May on whether to renew the contract.

• A senator is needed for the College of Aeronautics and Engineering.

• Floor tickets are sold out for the Lil Uzi Vert concert on Oct. 8. Representatives spoke about this, and stressed that tickets are still available.

• Representatives discussed applications for Propel Ohio, a leadership program promoting civic engagement among college students that, this year, will focus on childhood poverty.

• USG President Daniel Oswald encouraged representatives to show up for football games and tailgates.

• A resolution to support Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week was read. This includes spreading awareness on food pantries and other resources for food-insecure students on campus, including the Women’s Center.

• Representatives read a resolution to establish a student ambassador program, meant to increase lines of communication between student groups and USG representatives.

• A bill was introduced to add a legislation page to USG’s website, establish media channels and make meetings public.

• A bill was introduced to recognize undergraduate students who have served, or are currently serving, in the armed forces.

• A bill was discussed on implementing senatorial committees, who would help USG representatives with legislation and projects related to student government.
