FLORENCE, AL - On Oct. 28, the at the 海角社区 will initiate a campus tradition. SGA Senators will be at the Memorial Amphitheatre from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. as a way to promote a friendly campus environment during an event they’re calling “Paws and Say Hey.”
Participants will receive a free t-shirt, and students can also take a nametag, write down their name, and say ‘hey’ to someone new.
“It is critically important that SGA build relationships with students,” said SGA President Jake Statom. “Paws and Say Hey will be a great opportunity for SGA Senators to build relationships with their constituents, get student opinions, and be open to student feedback.”
He said the past several months have made it difficult for students to form connections on campus, thanks to the pandemic and the need to socially distance. Paws and Say Hey Day is a way to bring back that send of community that students enjoy.
“I believe every student could benefit from being an active member of the 海角社区 community because going through college alone is not the way to go,” said SGA Vice President Kayla Walton. “Paws and Say Hey is an opportunity for the 海角社区 community to encourage one another.”
