This past weekend (Feb 25 - 27) the SCC student senators hosted the spring Missouri Community College Student Government (MCCA-SG) conference in Jefferson City. And not only did our students host the conference, they prepared the registration materials, planned the agenda which included arranging entertainment and planning the menu. Each SCC senator also had the opportunity to present and emcee meeting sessions.

Approximately 88 student senators and student government advisors (representing 8 Missouri community colleges) participated in the conference.

Jared Streiler, SCC Student Senate President, and Representative Anne Zerr getting ready to run the mock legislative session. Some of the mock bills included 'making it illegal to walk and text at the same time, zombie preparedness, and mandatory recycling at community colleges.'
After the mock legislative session - SCC Senators and Representative Anne Zerr.
Things got a little rough for Eddie (alias 'Boomer') O'Neil as seen in the below photo. This senator was demonstrating how NOT to get your point across.
Ian Thompson, SCC Student Senator, was selected after an interview process to serve as the MCCA Board student representative. Four other students also interviewed for the position.Ian will represent the voice of the MCCA students (which is quite ironic because Ian is the quietest person I have ever spoken to....).
We are very proud of Ian and know he will do an excellent job in representing the students' voice - now if we could just get him to put that book down......joking!
Murder mystery characters. No one was actually murdered during this session.
