What to expect from UF Student Government this summer

During the Spring semester, the Student Senate passed laws and resolutions covering issues ranging from rebuking ACCENT and Student Government Productions Agency for inviting Nelly to calling upon UF to address climate change and move away from fossil fuels. Looking ahead at the summer session, senators agreed the budget, redrawing of the voting districts and keeping Marston open 24/7 are top ticket items students should keep a close eye on.
