As Undergraduate Student Government (USG) President Rubina Javeri officially left office last night, all four of her executive platform goals have come close to completion.

"This is one of the first years that student government was able to achieve all of its platform goals and do it in a timely manner," Javeri said.

The one goal Javeri and USG Vice President Kris Ankarlo were not able to accomplish was forming an online waiting list to schedule classes that are full. Javeri said the university registrar was concerned that the waiting list would mean a longer class registration period.

The goal's focus has shifted to providing students with a list of alternative classes to take when the ones they attempt to schedule are full.

Javeri said that this reformed plan could be operational by the fall.

The executive branch's new off-campus student union will also be in full operation by the fall, after its expected approval this summer.

Paul Cronin, USG director of town affairs, was recently appointed president of the union. The union will provide legal help for students seeking apartment contracts, disseminate employment opportunities within State College, register voters and more.

An additional housing fair will take place in conjunction with the union this fall, Javeri said. Cronin is also working on a "tastes of State College" fair for October.

The off-campus student union will tentatively operate out of the USG office in the HUB-Robseon Center.

Javeri said she hopes it will obtain a permanent off-campus location sometime after its official approval.

Javeri and Ankarlo have also succeeded in expanding HUB eatery hours. Barney's, a Union Street convenience store, has extended its weeknight hours until 10 p.m.

Last week, the executive branch announced the completion of its goal of online services for University Health Services (UHS).

Although it is currently a pilot program, students can now use the ANGEL Course Management System to make appointments.

"We got a lot done from the get-go and it was just smooth sailing from there," Ankarlo said.

Javeri's administration has also worked on other student life issues at Penn State.

The executive branch helped improve lighting in Parking Lot 83N, initiated inaugural student organization awards last week and supported allowing students to choose not to have information posted on the online student directory.

Javeri said she is also forming the student part of a greek relationship statement with the university, which she will present to the Board of Trustees next month.

The executive branch, however, has not been as proactive with lobbying this spring for state appropriations as in years past.

USG's main lobbying trip to Harrisburg in February was canceled after a key member could not attend. Then, Kevin "Kip" Talley resigned as USG director of governmental relations after lying to the press about the trip.

While a few USG members met with representatives twice last semester, Javeri said she hopes that more "everyday" students can be motivated to lobby next academic year.

Ian Rosenberger will now take over as USG president after the highest voter turnout in USG election history.

Rosenberger said he was excited to continue some of Javeri's initiatives, such as the online UHS services after its testing phase.

Overall, Rosenberger said he considers Javeri's administration to be a success.

"A lot of the goals they set out to do, they did," he said.
