Student Body President Ashton Charles has finished her nominations for the last empty Student Government cabinet seats.

Senators unanimously approved the four remaining nominees during Tuesday’s meeting after interviewing them, some via speakerphone, about their experience and ideas for their cabinets.

Charles addressed senators over the phone as she boarded a plane in Washington, D.C., and briefly told them about why she chose her nominees.

Amanda Griffin will hold the position of supervisor of elections, James Dieterle will be the Athletics Cabinet Secretary, Paula Irvin will be the Advertising Cabinet Director and Casey Goldstein will be the director of the Disability Affairs Cabinet Director.

Senators questioned Griffin about how she plans to change the SG elections. She said she wants to make sure her assistants are well-versed in the 700 codes, which outline the election rules in the Student Body constitution.

Griffin said she would not change any election codes, such as those dealing with door-to-door campaigning, without the approval of the Senate.

“I would never think of changing anything unless I was told to do so,” she said.
