Letter to the Fordham Community from USG

Santiago Vidal and Ava Coogan • May 12, 2023
It is with great pleasure that we address you in our last days as Fordham University United Student Government’s (USG) Executive Administration of 2022-23. When we took office, we knew our job this year was going to require higher levels of dedication and responsibility. We started the year with a new university president, uncertainty on the national political stage, financial uphills at the university level and a lack of trust and transparency with the student body. However, we are glad to report that the state of the university student body is better than ever.
