Student Senate speaks with presidential search committee

Student Senators spoke to representatives of the Presidential Search committee about what they would want in a new CSC president at the 4 p.m. StudentSenate meeting Monday.
President and Senior Consultant L. Jay Lemons and Consultant Jennifer B. Kooken from the Academic Search firm visited campus to ask senators what they loved about the school, and the characteristics they would want to see in the new president.
“The biggest thing from my perspective is addressing the issues that happen on campus,” Cody Kronhofman, sophomore, said in the meeting. “We have a lot of different things that happen on campus, but the negative things are not being addressed to us appropriately.”
The senators voiced repeatedly that they wanted the future president to interact with students more frequently, and communicate more directly and transparently.
“I think it’s important as a president to express gratitude towards the students because there are a lot of colleges that they could choose,” Student Senate Secretary Aubree Quast, sophomore of Clarks, said. “I feel like that’s a very important characteristic of a president of a college is to be prideful and thankful for their students.”
