What are your feelings on President Clark’s new calendar and its effects on the summer semester starting in 2007?
“I think it is great that he is finding ways to allow more students to come to this university and not raising the price. It is just as he said he would do in his inauguration. This will allow those who go to school during the summer semester the opportunity to take classes that were not offered in past summers.”
What is the main thing you plan to accomplish while you are vice president?
“I plan on trying to get more students involved in activities. There are so many opportunities here that people don’t take advantage of.”
