CAB selects new executive board members

After the resignation of Vice Chair of Records Christopher Wright and Vice Chair of Public Relations Aydin Garvin at the Nov. 18 meeting as well as the upcoming graduation of Chair CAB Travis Mills, the CAB executive board was left vacant. This week, new CAB representatives were chosen to fill the empty positions. Along with the new selections, the positions of vice chair of public relations and vice chair of programming were combined into one position.  

Following CAB bylaws Vice Chair of Programming Sadie Shepard will be filling the position of CAB chair, leaving her position vacant as well. 

At first, no recommendations were made, and the CAB representatives remained quiet.  

“We have to fill this. I will say that it is pretty easy on the job learning, it’s not like it’s taking on an extra job. It’s pretty low-key, you have a lot of people who will help you out if you do choose to do it, and it’s a good way to learn how CAB works and how student government works,” CAB Chair Travis Mills said.  

However, after descriptions of the jobs were made, two representatives stepped up to fill the empty spots. Ruth Mencia, sophomore of Grand Island, was selected as the new vice chair of records and Alexis McGann, sophomore of Broken Bow, was selected as the new vice chair of public relations and programming.
