The Graduate Student Association (GSA) still needs a treasurer, among other positions, after holding elections for the second time last night at its meeting.

"We need a treasurer in order to continue operations," Brian Borawski, judiciary committee chairman, said.

"That is a definate requirement, otherwise we can't access our money."

GSA President Raghavan Balaji said if a treasurer was not elected or appointed by the end of the semester, President-elect Joseph Gyekis would have to serve as treasurer as well.

Balaji emphasized the importance of filling the position of treasurer.

"It's possibly the most important position other than the president, if not more important," he said. "The treasurer is vital for continued functioning."

Gyekis said he believed GSA would be able to find a treasurer, adding that he wasn't disappointed by the low interest so far.

"Graduate students are busy," he said

"There needs to be more publicity and excitement."

Balaji said the executive board, which includes only the president and vice president of external affairs so far, has more people on it this year than it had at the same time last year.

Two more members were elected to the GSA during the meeting. Ashleigh May will reprise her role as representative to the HUB-Robeson Center Advisory Board. Balaji was elected to the judiciary committee, leaving two more seats open on that committee.

Balaji said GSA will hold elections again at its next meeting on April 18.

"We're confident that we'll have a strong turnout," he said. "We expect to fill all positions at our next meeting."

In addition to a treasurer and the two judiciary committee seats, GSA still needs a vice president of internal affairs, executive secretary, graduate council representative, University Park Allocations Committee representative and a parking appeals chairman or woman.
