Reps selected for campus boards
By ERIN LaRUFFA
News Writer


   The Student Senate elected several of its own members Wednesday night to represent the group on other campus boards.

The senate elected three representatives and one alternate to serve on the Campus Life Council (CLC); the committee made up of administrators, rectors, and faculty that must approve certain resolutions the Senate passes.

"I have no qualms standing up and speaking to anybody, be it administrators, teachers, or rectors," said Carroll Hall Senator Jesse Flores, one of the three elected to represent the senate on the CLC next year.

Senators Meghan O'Donnell of Pasquerilla West and Sole Galmarini of Badin will serve along with Flores. Senator Blake Haan of Keenan will serve as the alternate.

"I want to make sure what we do in Senate actually gets accomplished through the CLC," Haan said.

In addition to CLC representatives, the Senate also elected two members — Dillon Senator Jim Ryan and Knott Senator Matt Parsons — to represent the group on the Financial Management Board (FMB). The board must annually allocate funds to certain campus entities, such as the Student Union Board.

Ryan said that the position fits in well with his majors, government and economics.

"That's what we do — deal with money and people who want it," Ryan said. Parsons similarly expressed his interest to serve on the FMB.

The Senate unanimously confirmed Jason King as the class council representative to FMB. King was recently elected treasurer of the class of 2004.
