Undergraduate Student Government:

The Undergraduate Student Government also met to discuss Chick-fil-A on Monday. Senators voted to keep Chick-fil-A off of a student survey and to not support the restaurant, if it were to make it on the survey and eventually into a location in the Falcon’s Nest. At the meeting, Ben Goldsberry, USG speaker of the senate, announced the following voting results:

Should Chick-fil-A be removed from a survey as an option for the Falcon’s Nest?

29 senators voted “yes”

USG will not support Chick-fil-A if it is presented on a survey as an option or if it is chosen to open in the Falcon’s Nest, next fall.
