Results of the Constitutional Ratification

Results of the Constitutional Ratification

The Student Government Association is proud to announce the results of the special election to ratify the new constitution. 240 students voted in the election, with 216 (90%) voting yes, 20 (8.33%) voting no, and 4 (1.67%) selecting both options therefore abstaining. SGA will continue to operate under the current constitution until the end of the school year, and the new constitution will be used for the Spring 2020 election cycle. The new constitution will go into full effect beginning in the Fall 2020 semester. Learn more about the new constitution here.

This new constitution introduces a new chapter for the Student Government Association, which will allow student governance to be more proactive and impactful on the overall student experience at Emerson College. We look forward to seeing how Emerson will continue to be shaped by the powerful voices that students hold. 

Finally, we’d like to thank every student who voted in this important special election.
