More empty seats on SGB

Student Government Board Allocations Chair Nick Reslink has four committee seats to fill before student groups start filing funding requests.

Though SGB purposefully left two seats open in the spring to allow incoming freshmen to join the committee, two more seats opened up when senior Matthew Heiges and junior Zach Eddinger resigned this summer. SGB announced Eddinger’s resignation, the most recent, on Monday.

Eddinger resigned because he wanted to pursue other career interests, Reslink said. Heiges said he wanted to focus his attention elsewhere this upcoming school year.

Reslink said the resignations won’t affect the fall allocations process.

“There shouldn’t be any downside,” Reslink said.

Eddinger’s and Heiges’ positions are open to anyone who is graduating beyond April 2016.

To apply, SGB said students should submit an application through its website by Sept. 17 at 5 p.m. or email Reslink.
