ACADEMIC VICE PRESIDENTt: Vote Samantha Morr
Howard called Samantha Morr a balance to her own personality, but, in reality, Morr is the extreme opposite: While Howard excitedly relays her plans, Morr’s subdued way of explaining her intentions may keep her audience from immediately jumping on board. Quiet, reserved Morr hopes to create mini-governments modeled after the BSGA, of which she currently serves as the president. Though we applaud her attempt to involve more members of the community in SGA, we are concerned about student interest in this endeavor, considering that the Senate already has difficulty filling seats.

Morr said that much of the academic vice president job is undefined and is therefore reactionary, but a proactive attitude would be better received. Similar to current Academic Vice President Tyler Brownfield, Morr is hesitant to reveal her accomplishments-a quality Howard deems humble, yet we still wish to hear results. Perhaps running unopposed has caused Morr to be languid in marketing herself; however, she will be unable to promote projects and earn respect if she does not motivate others. If Morr does not define the job herself, the academic vice president will be defined for her by her inactivity.
