Dear UNC Charlotte Friends and Family,
I have had an amazing
year working with you while we built a stronger community on UNC
Charlotte’s campus and in the city of Charlotte. Now that my time as
Student Body President is over, I look back on the year as being
consistently rewarding and exhilarating. We have worked together as an
organization to compile our work this past year in the SGA 2008 Final
Report available online at http://sga.uncc.edu/08finalreport. I hope that you will find some time to review the many remarkable things that this group of students have accomplished.
After I complete the 2nd summer of my work at Pisgah Astronomical
Research Institute I will be back on campus in the fall to finish my
dual-degree program receiving a BS Electrical Engineering and BS
Physics while hopefully working as an intern in the Charlotte area (not
sure where yet) before graduating in December 2008. I aim to begin
graduate school soon after that either abroad or domestically.
Even though I am now retired from the Student Government
Association at UNC Charlotte, I will remain an active and integrated
member of the Charlotte community. I’m sure you will see me several
times throughout the coming year in that role.
I could not be more excited about the prospect of Tim Ernst leading
SGA to future goals and aspirations during 2008 and 2009. Knowing that
I am leaving the organization in good hands gives me a lot of
confidence in the future of Charlotte 49er student leadership.
As of today, the email address of sbpres@uncc.edu, the http://your49erpresident.com blog
and the Student Body President’s office belong entirely to Mr. Ernst as
he takes on all the responsibilities of being “the prez”.
For the future, please do not hesitate to contact me via my personal blog at http://jritch.net
and over the phone at 7043235977. I would welcome the opportunity to
work with you again on projects to improve the Charlotte community.
Thank you once again.
Sincerely,
Justin Ritchie
