Students to elect 4 freshman

UK Student Government will begin the polls for Freshman Elections Wednesday morning, which will decide the newest and youngest members of the Senate.

Freshmen can elect four senators out of the 13 who are running.

Brittney Griffith, SG Elections board chair, is in charge of planning the elections, putting it on a timeline and informing those who are running.

“These kids are really … jumping into a really big role and taking a chance,” Griffith said. “They are showing they are good leaders.”

Elections will be open Wednesday and Thursday online at uksga.org, or freshman students can vote between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday at White Hall Classroom Building or the Student Center near Starbucks.
