<strong>GRADUATE</strong> STUDENT ASSOCIATION<br />
Dr. Foley recognized Ms. Julia Fraustino, representing the <strong>Graduate</strong> Student Association (GSA).<br />
Ms. Fraustino reported that the GSA held its annual Spring Benefit Gala on Saturday, April 14,<br />
<strong>2012</strong>. The Gala raised approximately $700 to benefit the ClearWater Conservancy.<br />
Ms. Fraustino informed the Council that GSA elections for the <strong>2012</strong>–2013 academic year were<br />
held from Monday, April 2 through Wednesday, April 4, <strong>2012</strong>, for its Executive Officers, Assembly<br />
Delegates, and University Park Allocation Committee (UPAC) Representative. The new Delegates and<br />
Executive Board were seated at GSA’s last meeting. The new President is Wanika Fisher, the new Vice<br />
President is Robbie Fraleigh, and the new Treasurer is current <strong>Graduate</strong> Council Representative Brad<br />
Sottile. The election also included all five GSA <strong>Graduate</strong> Council seats for <strong>2012</strong>–2013; four candidates<br />
received the required number of votes to win positions. The fifth seat received several write-in candidates,<br />
but because none received 50% of all votes, an additional election to seat the fifth representative will take<br />
place among the Assembly in the first meeting of the fall semester.<br />
