Kara Blakley
Vice President of Operations
My name is Kara Blakley, and I'm a marketing and management
information systems double major, lover of all things television
and movies, a die-hard St. Louis Cardinals baseball fan, and
passionate about Student Government at Butler. As Vice
President of Operations for SGA, I oversee boards that help
coordinate the logistics of our weekly student assembly and shuttle
bus service on campus. Participating on Operations Board
allows you to assist in organizing numerous aspects of SGA, and it
is a great way to be informed of various events and programs on
campus.
Outside of SGA, I am active with business organizations,
volunteer work with the YMCA, and have an on-campus job.
There hasn't been a day that's gone by that I haven't loved being a
Bulldog and being a part of organizations such as SGA has made it
even more enjoyable. If you have any questions, comments, or
suggestions about Operations Board or even how to get more involved
with SGA, please don't hesitate to contact me at SGA@butler.edu. Thanks!

Favorite Butler Memories
My favorite memories have included being in the audience for one
of Jimmy Fallon's late-night show tapings in downtown Indy during
Super Bowl week, seeing Trip introduced as a puppy and watching him
grow up and become our third official mascot, and the basketball
team's buzzer beating win against Gonzaga and enjoying all the
festivities from ESPN's College Game Day.
