From The Desk
of Executive President... Hey everyone! My name is
Eric Osterhus and I will be your SGA Executive President
this year. I am a Senior and have been a part of SGA for the
past 3 years. I am also a Wingate Student Affairs Ambassador
as well as Vice-President of Kappa Alpha Order. I am very
excited to be serving you as President this year. We have an
awesome group of people on our new Executive Board and I
know that they will all do great things in their individual
positions. As an Executive Board, we came up with a central
theme for the year: "It pays to Discover." What led us to
this is our desire to see all Wingate students get engaged
around our campus in student organizations which appeal to
them. We have a wide variety for students to chose from, and
we hope that over the next year, each member of our student
body will make every effort to become a part of the ones
which they best identify with. If you have any questions
throughout the year, please feel free to contact me via
email or whenever you see me around campus. I would be more
than happy to help you out in any way I can. We are all very
excited for what the upcoming year holds!

Hey everyone, my name is Lee Winchester and I will be
serving as the Director of Campus life this year. So far at
Wingate I have served as the Freshmen Class President and
I’m also a member of the Kappa Alpha Order. I’m looking
forward to a fun and interesting year. I plan to continue
working on the campus lake project by coming up with fun,
collective ideas to make our lake more appealing to
students. I know I’ve got some ideas of my own but if anyone
has something they would like to see done around campus,
please do not hesitate to email me or just approach me
anytime if you see me around. I’m positive that this year’s
exec board will do a fabulous job serving the students and
I’m thrilled about this upcoming year at Wingate!
Leadership Development
Emma
Schuman
Hometown: Marion, NC
Major: Human Services and Psychology Year: Sophomore Office Hours: TBA Email: easchuman@wingate.edu From the Desk of Leadership Development...
My name is Emma and this year I will be a sophomore, which is
pretty exciting because that means I am one year closer in
graduating. This year will be a super year! I am a peer mentor,
leadership fellow, and satiation for the Bulldogs in many different
sports, a group fitness instructor, and of course the SGA Leadership
Development chair. As you can tell I’m pretty busy but that’s the
way that I like it . In SGA this year I personally want to
accomplish two things and they are: 1) I want the students and the
Student organizations to view SGA not just as the club that deals
out all the money but a voice for the students and let the students
know that they have a voice and it should be heard. 2) That all
Bulldogs are the same. Meaning that regardless if a student is a
leader in a club or just a member they are all the same and that
every student here at Wingate gets treated the same. And that SGA
will help make that a true fact.

From The
Desk of Honor Council Chair...
Hi everyone, I’m Mary-Anne Jones and I’ll be serving as your
Honor Council Chair for the upcoming year. This past year I
had the opportunity to be a part of Freshman Senate as well
as work on the Class Officer Committee. I also joined Alpha
Xi Delta this past semester and am now a Leadership Fellow.
I am very excited to work with the rest of the Executive
Board to continue to build a strong sense of unity and pride
for our school. We will make every effort this year to
promote events around campus and get more students involved.
As your Honor Council Chair, I will always make myself
available to you and will work to uphold our honor system,
making it a part of our everyday decision making. I will
always be open to any questions as well as concerns. I am
looking forward to the amazing endeavors we have ahead of
us.
From The
Desk of Public Relations Chair.. Hi, my name is Megan Wood.
This will be my second year at Wingate. I am from Danville, VA. My
major is Communications and I plan to have an emphasis in Broadcast
Journalism and a minor in English. I am extremely involved around
campus, including writing for the Weekly Triangle, reporting for
Wingate Trax, a Leadership Fellow, and Housing Assistant in
Residence Life but I am unbelievably excited to be working on the
SGA Executive Board as Public Relations Chair for the 2008-2009
school year. Our plans for the upcoming year will be to not only
follow the footsteps of the preceding Executive Board but create a
path of our own. With events such as orientation and homecoming we
will work hard to get students involved on campus. As public
relations chair, my vision will be to heighten awareness of campus
activities, with innovative ideas and creative ways to promote these
events. Through the committee’s hard work, I hope our efforts will
strengthen student involvement to create a sense of community as
well as a love for Wingate University that I have acquired.
From The
Desk of Athletics Chair..
Hey there sports fans! I am so excited to be working on SGA
this year to organize everything to do with Bulldog
athletics. My goals are to get everyone out to all the games
and support our teams and to make it more fun for everyone
involved. I am also involved in Sigma Sigma Sigma, Order of
Omega, Phi Eta Sigma and Leadership Fellows. I would love to
get a lot of students involved in my two committees. One
will be based more on leadership and planning events and the
other will be about increasing spirit and pride on our
campus. Either way it is a great way to get involved. If you
ever have any questions, comments or ideas feel free to
contact me anytime! Go Bulldogs!
