Double Trouble

Both School of Business and School of Arts started things off with a bang as it was announced that the male SASS representative handed in his resignation, citing personal reasons for stepping away from the role. This was followed up by the resignation of Carolyn Htoon, the female SOB representative from her position. Fortunately, the sixth council meeting was able to resolve ONE of this issues, with the appointment of Imamul Ariffin as the male SASS representative. For those of you who are up to date on your yearly MUSA pokemon cards, you will recognise Imam’s name from his previous position as one MUSA 2022’s Vice President. With his year of experience in MUSA we certainly foresee no problem working with him for the rest of the term. On the other hand, SOB continues to scour their large pool of students for a suitable female representative candidate, a vacancy we hope will be filled in soon. 

We Have A General Secretary Again! 

Technically, we always had a general secretary (props to Kirara for going above and beyond, performing duties as Vice President and Acting General Secretary!), but we finally have an officially appointed one! If you remember the hot mess that was the former Secretary’s resignation, it should come as a relief to Monashians that the latest General Secretary, Hadi Dadabhoy was appointed with little to no objections from all MSC members. 

25 Years of Monash

The Activities and Publicity Department are currently working hand in hand with Student Life in order to organize events for Monash University’s 25th Anniversary which is tentatively set to take place on the 25th of August. Among the suggested activities includes: T-shirt painting and carnival-esque games, however everything is still very much in the planning stage and are expected to change! 

Women’s Bazaar 

The Wom*ns department is currently organizing a Women’s bazaar, consisting of local female entrepreneurs in order to raise awareness of empowerment and simultaneously challenge the stereotypes of gender roles. Dear Wom*ns might I suggest a Barbie-themed bazaar please and thank you? 

MSC#6 Highlights 

• Some of the positions at MUSA seem to be stuck in a constant game of musical chairs 
• We hope that our General Secretary and new SASS representative are well prepared for elections (omg finally, get me out of here guys!)
• Semester 2 is shaping up to be much more fun-filled than Semester 1 with events looming around every corner!
