If you think a secretary only writes, well think again. The SASS secretary is not only responsible for the SASS exec minutes, but also keeps the fridge stocked with oh so tasty pop. Mmm. Pop.

David Campbell SRA Representative
elected officer with voting rights; position created in 1985
 
The Student Representative Assembly (SRA) is the governing body for the McMaster Students Union (MSU). Each academic division is allocated some of the 35 Assembly members on the basis of their size; basic arithmetic has fated the job of the Arts & Science rep to be a lonely one. The SRA meets biweekly, and has extensive decision-making power as to how the MSU and its various services operate. It occasionally makes good decisions.

SRA Ex-Officio

The Arts & Science SRA Ex-Officio seat provides the members of SASS with an additional voice (although not an additional vote) within the MSU's Student Representative Assembly.
 
The 2010 SRA Ex-Officio is Jeffrey Wyngaarden

Jeffar. Like from Aladdin, minus the creepy goatee (sometimes). Still rockin the headgear and magical powers. No current plans for usurping the sultan's throne.

Meagan McEwen Senate Observer
elected councillor with voting rights; position created in 1983
 
The Senate Observer is your voice on the University Senate, and represents the views of Artscis to administrators and fellow students. As our programme isn't granted faculty status by The McMaster University Act, 1976, we consequently don't receive a voting member. Feel free to write Dalton at premier@gov.on.ca on this matter.
Contact:
 
The 2010 Senate Observer is Meagan McEwen

Meagan is fond of many activities involving spandex, including cycling, running, rowing, and ski racing. Some of her favourite things are reading about obscure medical conditions, viticulture, doing the crossword, and very large drooly dogs. A small-town girl at heart, Meagan hopes to live on a self-sustainable hobby farm once she graduates to be able to further explore her passions for local food, tractors, and interesting critters.

I hate writing blurbs. I detest writing blurbs. I abhor writing blurbs. I despise writing blurbs. I loath writing blurbs. I cannot stand writing blurbs. I recoil from writing blurbs. But I am mostly a positive person (when I am not being negative).

The 2010 Senior Student Programme Advisor is Olivia Lee

Olivia hails from the mythical lands of the T to the O. She enjoys etymology, the word floccinaucinihilipilification and pi. When she's not scurrying around campus, she can be found in C105, musing about avocados. A devout practicer of proper grammar, Olivia is often heard mumbling in English, French or Latin (sometimes all in one Latinglais sentence). She really likes Latin. Si hunc legere potes, linguam Latinae nimis scis.

Shohinee Sarma Admissions Committee Representative
