Pi Phi Passionate About Student Governing Association

Like many Pi Phis before her, Sophia Tolentino chose to dedicate her time and energy to being a part of K-State's Student Governing Association (SGA) this year.  A freshmen from Manhattan, Kan., Sophia was one of few selected to serve as an SGA Intern after undergoing the interview process.

"I'd heard wonderful things about the SGA program, and was encouraged by many people to apply.  I love being involved, and was interested to see how SGA actually works."

Biggest Responsibility: Our biggest responsibility as interns is to stay attentive and participate.  We are in the learning stage right now, and the only way to learn how SGA works is to pay attention in the meetings and ask questions 

Favorite Aspect: Truthfully, my favorite part is seeing just how dedicated the senators and cabinet members are.  I thought I was busy and had a lot to do, but these people put in so much time and effort to keep this University running smoothly.  It's very admirable 

Interesting Fact: We meet every Thursday at 7 p.m., and depending on the material that needs to be reviewed, we sometimes won't adjourn until 10 or 11 p.m.  These students take this job seriously, and it goes to show that nothing is fluffed off by the members of SGA

We are so proud of you Sophia! Thank you for representing Pi Phi in such an important student organization and working so hard for K-State!
