Student Senators Visits Organizations to Beg for Attention

Under the guise of recruiting students to fill vacancies, the Texas A&M Student Senate has started visiting different organizations this week to try and convince students that they’re actually important.

“We do a lot of important things on campus,” Harry Groves, an Arts and Sciences representative, said in his presentation to a FLO. “Things like having committees to improve transportation infrastructure that we have no control over or even committees to create other committees.”

Groves showed a list of the senate’s accomplishments which ranged from proposing a bill to change a housing bill that they (once again) had no power over, to proposing a bill that would beg the faculty senate to allow the student senate to write more bills.

One of the freshmen in the audience later commented that Groves would yell at anyone who wasn’t looking at him and beg for them to pay attention to him, saying “Guuuuyyyyssss… I promise we’re really important, just listen to me.”

When students were asked their opinion on the importance of the senate, one student, Richard Gunn, asked “Is this a Star Wars question?” while saying that he “never really got into the prequels.”
