There are two ways I plan to do this. First, I will strengthen communication between SAC and the student body by consistently sending out surveys and also giving students the opportunity to voice their opinions at every event we put on. Second, I will diversify collaborations with other organizations on campus, looking to a variety of clubs on campus in order to draw in different types of students. I will take these measures so that SAC\u2019s events next year reach a larger audience. After all, more students can only mean more entertainment, which is what SAC is all about!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div id=\"bio\">\n<div id=\"bio-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.centre.edu\/cento\/files\/\/2016\/03\/Boom-Headshot.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2672\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.centre.edu\/cento\/files\/\/2016\/03\/Boom-Headshot-300x201.jpeg\" alt=\"Boom Headshot\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cento.centre.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Boom-Headshot-300x201.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cento.centre.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Boom-Headshot.jpeg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div id=\"bio-text\">\n<h2>Bryce Rowland<br \/>\nCandidate for Speaker of the House<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This year as Speaker, I have learned all about our college, our SGA, and students\u2019 perceptions of our organization. Some students really enjoy our presence on campus and some students don\u2019t; however, many students believe that the Student Government Association is not equipped to solve big problems on campus. While SGA has done a good job over the past few years funding organizations or projects around campus, we have not done a good job dealing with bigger problems surrounding our campus environment.
