In the recent ASI elections, Anna Koval was elected to the State Hornet Publication Board. Koval ran as an independent and earned her seat in the uncontested position.

Koval explained her reason for running as a “desire to see more of a student voice in the State Hornet.”

Koval realizes the role that the Hornet plays on campus.

“The Hornet is in need of more student voice because a lot of people read it,” Koval said.

The main objective of Koval?s position on the Board is to provide an accessible medium between the State Hornet and the student body. As a voting member on the Board, and a student-at-large, Koval will attend the Publication Board meetings once a month. At the meetings, she will present reports to the Board based on student feedback.

“I will utilize a willing and open ear and a very vocal mouth,” Koval said.

Koval has several objectives to upholding her position. One is to attend various campus club and organization meetings and converse with the members. A second is to take breaks from frequent library studying to mingle and meet students in the quad. Koval also plans to acquire feedback from her fellow classmates to see what they want published in the Hornet.

In other election news, Fahnmusa Jangaba, beat out two other candidates for a two-year position on the University Union Board. Jangaba managed to get 37 percent of the votes out of 3520 cast.

Nicole Potter was also elected to the University Union board, but for a one-year term. Potter carried 47.6 percent of 2769 votes.
