Four Alpha Phi Alpha members requested assistance from SGA in putting on the fraternity’s annual Miss Black and Gold scholarship pageant. 

The fraternity requested a $500 sponsorship from SGA for the event, as the total cost to hold the event exceeds $1,600. 

The pageant will take place Tuesday, Nov. 18, at 7:06 p.m. at the top of the Student Union Building.

The pageant awards scholarships to Miss Black and Gold for $500, Miss Black $300, Miss Gold $100 and Miss Talent $50. 

The fraternity said that if given a sponsorship, all SGA members would be allowed in for free.

Officers covered information on Halloween Ball and promoting it on social media.

SGA President Adrian LeJeune said minutes from meetings will be uploaded on the organization’s website.

LeJeune also said they are “going to try to utilize the website a lot more.”

SGA Adviser Laura Knotts promoted the annual Trunk or Treat hosted by Up ‘til Dawn.  Knotts said kids go from trunk to trunk in a safe trick-or-treating environment.

“If you’ve never been there, the kids love it. It’s so much fun,” Knotts said.
