Senate Log

The Senate swore in its newest elected members and elected Ricky Rosen ’14 as Executive Senator at its last official meeting of the year, on May 1.

Members of the Senate and other Student Union officers who were elected in April convened in the Peace Room in the Usdan Student Center. Outgoing Student Union President Herbie Rosen ’12 swore in Todd Kirkland ’13 as the new president, and Kirkland, in turn, administered the oath of office to the gathered officers and senators en masse.

Outgoing Executive Senator Missy Skolnik ’12 called the informal ceremony a “bittersweet moment” for graduating senior senators and Union officers.

An official, public swearing-in ceremony took place at the State of the Union address later that week.

In the executive session that followed, the Senate named re-elected Senator for the Class of 2014 Ricky Rosen as the Executive Senator for the Fall 2012 semester, Rosen confirmed in an interview with the Justice.
