SGA President addresses the student body

Aggies,

On behalf of the Student Government Association (SGA)--Anisah Rasheed, Miss NC A&T; Arnita Floyd-Moody, Vice President of Internal Affiars; Megan A. Brooks, Vice President of External Affairs; Jessica Robinson, Secretary; Charles Biney, Treasurer; and Dominique Tillman, Attorney General), I would like to humbly thank all of the Aggies that supported us in our endeavors to pursue leadership.

We would not be in the positions that we are in today if you had not given us your continuous love and support. We would like to recognize that there is a marvelous and wonderful Creator that makes everything possible.

Moreover, it is our sincere prayer that we are used as instruments so that we may serve our people with love and divine spiritual purpose.

Many have asked what exactly do we plan to do for this student body, and within the answer to that question lies a monumental concept. Our ultimate goal is to aid in establishing a mindset that would require all Aggies to be leaders--those that would determine and obtain that which is necessary for success them so that they may have significance in their lives as well as others.

Leaders must understand that T.O.T.A.L Involvement, "The Only True Aggie Life," is a movement in progress. It is our duty to demand understanding as well as influence. Also, it is key to realize that we are most powerful when we are united.

Aggies, if you forfeit your right to be involved, then you forfeit the opportunity to carry the torch of responsibility and enlightenment that has been passed to us by a rich heritage and royal bloodline. Those before us have willingly fought, bled and died to establish the foundation upon which we stand to ensure that we may determine our futures. Aggies that are totally involved and accountable should be excited to have the chance to build upon this foundation.

It is the calling of the Ramey Administration to exemplify leadership through service. This administration will be aware of students' needs. We will be the "backbones" and proponents for student representation. We look forward to Welcome Week and having the opportunity to discuss many of the issues that we have addressed in preparation for the upcoming school year.

The first week also would be a great time for us to receive feedback from the students in order to ensure that the SGA maintain a focus that is determined by the student body.

The executive board would also like to offer a special thanks to Ms. B. Herring, Ms. W. Knight, Elliot Ross, Michael "Mike Philly" Fairfax, and Darnell Reid. These individuals provided unyielding support to the executive board and the student body throughout the summer. They have played a vital role in the enrichment of student leadership. Thank you.

Please join the T.O.T.A.L Involvement group on TheFacebook.com for constant Aggie updates. Once again, thank you for everything and God bless.

Regards,
Justin D. Ramey
SGA President
