January Address
Message from the President – Elijah O’Sullivan
Welcome back, Burman University students, to an exciting new semester! As we begin 2025, I’m thrilled to share some updates and plans we have in store. We are excited to introduce the new advanced payment option that we hope will make managing your finances easier. Additionally, our brand-new Student Association website is live, designed to keep you informed about events, initiatives, and everything you need to know. And yes, we have a few surprises planned for the semester—stay tuned!
Although the weather outside may be chilly, I hope you find warmth and connection within our campus community. I encourage you to get involved and take advantage of the many opportunities available. If you have any questions or ideas or just want to chat, feel free to stop by during our BUSA hours. You can check out our updated schedule in the "About Us" section of the website. We’re here to support you and make this semester a great experience for everyone.
Finally, as we approach the end of this month, applications for the next BUSA team will open. This is your chance to step up and make a difference—be the change you want to see on campus!
Let’s work together to make this semester one to remember. Your involvement makes all the difference.
Message from the EVP – January Address
Hey Burman! I am so excited to be back for another semester and serve as your EVP. Last semester, we had so many great opportunities and events happen. My senators were hard at work to support all your needs and make your experience at Burman a great one! Don’t forget to become familiar with all of your senators and do not hesitate to contact them or me if you have any questions, concerns, feedback, or notes of encouragement! We appreciate your support in us!
For the month of January, we are looking forward to bringing more events and content. Our first event will be brought to you by our International Senator, Bontu, who has planned a brunch for our international students. An email will be sent out with further information on that :) Additionally, our "Day in the Life" vlog series will continue to be published on our Senate Instagram (@mysenate), and we hope you continue to enjoy them as much as we have! A few of us will also be reviewing the BUSA Bylaws throughout this month and next, working to make sure everything is up to date and written clearly. Continue to watch for other events and updates throughout the semester! We look forward to another great semester with you!
