Program Board elects fall '08 executive board

April 21, 2008 —

Program Board has elected its fall 2008 executive board.

Shane Williamson will lead the board as its president, while John Reno is vice president, Tadd Jawor is treasurer, and Megan Milbourne is operations manager. Two committee chairs have been filled and two are still open. Marcus Leonard will chair the Cultural and Diversity Committee and Bill Doherty will chair the Music and Special Events Committee.

Williamson has high hopes for next semester.

"There were many negative things that happened in the fall, but now that we have seen the organization at its weakest, we know what needs to change," he said.

The board plans to focus heavily on commuter programs for the coming semester.

"We want to eliminate the division between commuter students and on-campus students at programs. We want to show how we can all be Cardinals," Williamson said.

He also said that he has had significant leadership experience, including being president of two organizations.

"I was president of University Residence Association this year and helped change the organization for the better," he said. "I hope to do the same with Program Board and spend the $25,000 we get each semester wisely."
