George Mpliokas has been elected President, replacing the outgoing George Psihoyios.

Nick Giovas has been elected Vice President and replaces Michael Maglis, who has been elected to the General Committee.

MUGA members Michael Kokkaris, Nikita Giameos, Jennifer Tzortzis, Evangelia Caldelis, Steven Tzortzis, and Michael Maglis have been elected to the General Committee for 2017.

MUGA has achieved a number of successes throughout the last year; including an increase in membership to over 200 students, and collaborating with the Hellenic Studies Foundation to raise over $24,000 for the teaching of Modern Greek at Macquarie University’s The Macquarie Initiative function in February.
