Four Student Association (SA) senators — Riya Gaikwad, Laibah Ahmed, Dilasha Thapa and Nicholas Bausch — resigned their positions, leaving only 19 filled seats out of 23 total in SA Senate. SA opened applications to fill the vacant seats in an Instagram post Tuesday afternoon.
Pulitzer Prize-winning presidential historian Jon Meacham gave a talk on the Center of the Arts (CFA) mainstage Wednesday night about American democracy, history and the upcoming presidential election to kick off UB’s ‘24-25 Distinguished Speakers Series.
Before his Distinguished Speakers Series presentation, Meacham sat down with The Spectrum Wednesday night to weigh in on the importance of voting, the “compelling” stakes of the 2024 presidential election and why learning from the past matters.
Over the past week, voters elected seven senators to fill 12 open seats. The Spectrum reached out to all seven elected senators to ask about their previous experiences, policy platforms and goals. Six out of those seven senators agreed to an interview.
