DePaul’s Student Government Association went over plans for this week’s elections during Thursday’s general body meeting. Elections begin Monday at 9 a.m. and end Thursday at noon.
According to SGA’s website, several candidates are running for various positions within SGA, though some positions have no candidates running. To be on the ballot, candidates running for president and vice president must receive 50 student signatures, whereas 25 signatures are required for all other positions.
SGA Elections Coordinator Jane Pallos encouraged students that did not receive enough signatures to run as write-in candidates, but they must submit a letter of intent.

DePaul’s Student Government Association (SGA) highlighted the initiatives its members worked on last quarter in its Winter Quarter Transparency Report.
The report, obtained by The DePaulia, explains how SGA “advocated for student concerns, especially with the continued stress of remote learning,” and supported marginalized communities at DePaul during the winter quarter.
According to the report, SGA “released a statement condemning the violent insurrection at our nation’s Capitol and amplified the [Black Student Union]’s list of demands” to advocate for marginalized students and plans to release a solidarity statement in support of the APIDA community at DePaul, “further supporting their needs, especially with the rise of anti-Asian hate crimes in the past year.”
