| College of Education SGA Leaders Attend Dinner at SHSU President’s Residence
On behalf of the College of Education Caucus, several student leaders had the special opportunity to attend a formal dinner at the home of SHSU President Dr. Alisa White. This event fostered cross-campus connection and leadership dialogue in a warm and engaging environment. The COE Caucus proudly represented future educators, advocates, and scholars committed to creating positive change on and off campus.
It was an honor to be invited, and we’re grateful to President White and her team for hosting us in such a welcoming and inspiring space.
