Dean encourages SGA voting

Gene Anderson

Issue date: 2/5/07 Section: Administration
Student Government Association elections are upon us once again. I urge all of you to take time to participate in this very important process - one that can have a profound impact on the success of the School and, therefore, the future value of your degree.

From the moment you accepted our invitation to join the RSB community, you became an equity holder in the Ross School of Business. All of us - whether we are students, staff, or faculty - have a stake in our community and its reputation. Each of us has a responsibility to one another, to future members of our community, and to our alumni across the world. We're all accountable here.

Participation in SGA elections is an important way in which you can exercise your responsibility to all of these stakeholders and one of the best opportunities you will have to protect the investment you have made in RSB during the time that you are here. The leaders you select can have a profound impact on the quality of the educational experience and student life here at Ross. You have a responsibility to know the issues and to choose wisely among the candidates to ensure that we have the best possible leadership within the School going forward. Everyone that is eligible to vote is accountable for what these elected community leaders will do together over the course of the next twelve months.

The leaders you elect this week will help shape the legacy of the Class of 2008. What will that legacy be? I am hopeful that legacy will be one of continuing to work together to make the School the best that it can possibly be. The newly elected SGA leaders, appointed committee chairs, and members of these committees will make their mark through:

> Working together with deans, faculty, and staff on the School's key initiatives to strengthen our programs, our community, and our brand;

>Communicating to the student body about key initiatives our School is pursuing with regards to orientation, leadership development, curriculum, student life, diversity, placement, alumni, facilities, technology, and brand - as well as progress we are making in each area;
