In partnership with CitrusTV’s “SA Today” program, the Syracuse University Student Association will host a debate for the upcoming Student Association Presidential and Comptroller election. The debate will take place on Sunday, November 13 in Grant Auditorium at the College of Law. The debate will begin at 7:00 p.m. and end at 9:00 p.m. The event is free and open to the public, and doors will open at 6:15 p.m.

Jared Mandel, News Director at CitrusTV, is producing the program, which will be broadcast live by CitrusTV on both the Orange Television Network (channel 2 on campus) and at SADebate.syr.edu.

“We are excited about this unique opportunity because CitrusTV will be serving the undergraduate community by directly linking students and SA,” Ben Slutzky, General Manager at CitrusTV said.

“We’re thrilled to have this opportunity to broadcast an exciting election debate to our campus community. This partnership is an illustration of the collaboration that SA encourages among all student organizations,” said Neal Casey, President of Student Association.

All undergraduates are strongly encouraged to attend and engage with the candidates. The debate will be interactive, serving as a flexible forum for the student body to ask the candidates questions in person or via Twitter. Students can post questions to the candidates during the live debate by tweeting with the @SADebate twitter handle, and viewer reactions can be tweeted with the #SADebate hashtag.

Questions from students attending the debate online and in-person will be posed to candidates and moderated by CitrusTV’s Andrew Chernoff. CitrusTV and SA will also moderate a Twitter stream of audience reactions that will be shown on-screen, live at the debate. PJ Alampi, the SA Board of Election and Membership chair will also serve as a reference expert for Student Association elections.

Elections will be held on MySlice beginning on Monday, November 14 through Thursday, November 17. All undergraduates are invited and encouraged to vote for the president of the student body, comptroller and respective home college representatives.
