On Jan. 26, the Political Science and Criminal Justice Club held its first meeting on the Floyd campus. The meeting, which took place in the student atrium, drew 25 interested students.

Students grabbed pizza and soda, which will be available at every meeting, and quickly got to the business at hand. Students debated for the majority of the hour-long session, and were able to speak about political issues they were interested in. As well as the student-led discussion, advisers Randy Green and Greg Sumner shared announcements and opportunities associated with the club and allowed students to nominate and vote on club officers.

After the student vote, Grayson Alswalt-Smith was named club president, Jeffery Marion took the seat of vice president and Kevin Thomas-Griffin took the position of club secretary.

The next meeting for the Political Science and Criminal Justice Club will be on Feb. 24 at 12 p.m. in the student atrium on the Floyd campus.
