Welcome Back — By Ashley Roeske


The school year has begun along with all the campus activities that go with it. Student Senate is excited and anxious to have the 2010-2011 school year started.  Student Senate is ready to take an active role in representing students’ perceptions and thoughts on different topics.

Student Senate welcomes a new executive board for the 2010-2011 school year.  Serving on Student Senate this year are President Hardy DeLong, Vice President Kelli Smart, Secretary Thomas Smette, Treasurer Amanda Sondeland, Public Relations Officer Sara King, and Parliamentarian Ashley Roeske.

Student Senate interviewed four candidates Monday night for the Senator spots, but there is still room.   We need seven total senators so if you are interested in joining please contact Ashley Roeske by e-mail or check your e-mail inbox for the Student Senate application form.

Student Senate will be hosting their fall blood drive on October 19th from 9:00-1:30 in the Luckasen Room so be looking for information about that to sign up to help save a life!

Student Senate will also be doing their fall highway clean up in October.  Student Senate members clean-up a three mile stretch of Highway 18 south of Mayville’s Home Plate.  Mayville State Student Senate will be hosting the November meeting for NDSA (North Dakota Student Association).  Student Senate members from all eleven North Dakota public campuses will be on Mayville’s campus November 12 and 13 for meetings and a guest speaker.  The purpose of the North Dakota Student Association is to represent the views of all the university students in the state to the North Dakota University System (NDUS) board.

If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions about the campus or Student Senate please feel free to talk to anyone of the executive board members listed above.  We love to hear what the student’s needs and wants are!  If you want to sit in on a Student Senate meeting, they meet every Monday evening at 9:00 p.m. in the Student Senate Conference Room in the upper lounge; feel free to join them and voice your concerns!  Please watch your e-mail for other Student Senate sponsored activities!
