More SA Rumors - Senate At-Large, CCAS Candidates

A few more SA election rumors to mention (just before candidate registration closes tomorrow).  

Former Socially Responsible Initiatives (SRI) Chairwoman Kim Wollner is running for one of the six CCAS Senate seats, unofficially announcing Sunday on News In Depth.  

Current CCAS Senator Dylan F. Pyne also announced Sunday he will be running for re-election and not for SA president or EVP as was often rumored.  

Reliable sources have also told WRGW News that Anthony Marenna, currently a CCAS senator will also be running for re-election.

Other reliable sources have told us that Chas Pressner, the former VP of Financial Affairs under Vishal Aswani, and Charlie Rybak, a member of PIKE will be running for the Senate At-Large undergraduate seats.

These 'rumors' will either be confirmed or debunked sometime soon after 5 p.m. on Wednesday.  

Tomorrow on News in Depth...

Coming up on "News in Depth," Student Association Sen. Dylan Pyne (CCAS) and Kimberly Wollner, SA insider and former chairwoman of the Socially Responsible Initiatives Commission, will join WRGW News' Jared Pliner and Alex Laska to talk about the emerging field of presidential and executive vice presidential candidates this election season.

Then, Lisa Delpy Neirotti, associate professor of tourism and sports management, will call in from Vancouver, British Columbia with an exhilarating firsthand perspective of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games!

All that and more on this Sunday's "News in Depth," from 12 to 12:40 p.m., on GW Radio!

Last Year's Student Association Election: A Look Back

As candidates begin to announce their candidacies for SA President and EVP in the next week and the election season ensues yet again, here are some of the "memorable" moments of last year's race.

Kyle Boyer Thrown Off Ballot - In the most controversial moment of the campaign, the JEC expelled EVP Kyle Boyer from the Presidential contest after not claiming a car as an expense on his financial report (in addition to previous campaign violations). Boyer was just 2 votes shy of winning the contest outright in the first round, adding to the element of tragedy. SA drama at its finest moment.  Note to future SA candidates: report anything and everything as an expense.

Dylan 'F.' Pyne Gets Hideous Mustache Hacked Off - The current CCAS Senator promised to get it shaved off if he won a Senate seat, and we're happy he did. The mustache  hair on his upper lip looked absolutely gruesome, as seen in the video below, right before he shaved it off in-front of WRGW News.  Even more of a travesty: Pyne's terrible campaign slogans ("He makes scents") and his signs (pictured).

Logan Dobson Sails to Re-election - After 16 candidates ran for just 6 CCAS under-grad seats, Logan Dobson finished first in a landslide.  As a popular second year senator, you'd think he'd be elevated in the SA by fellow senators when it came to committee appointments, right?  The former Rules Committee Vice-Chairman tried to become Chairman of the Rules Committee.  Didn't work out.  Chairman of the Finance Committee?  Nope. Vice Chairman of any committee? No way, no how, no Dobson. Logan will probably get the last laugh if he runs for (and likely wins) EVP.
