Alexander Pallan, a junior in cybersecurity engineering, has been appointed as the Director of Information Technology following a nomination from President Martin Hursh. Pallan’s dedication and hard work were praised by Senate members, with several highlighting his qualifications for the position. He will also serve as one of three vice chairs of the PR Committee.
In a separate decision, the Senate did not approve a proposal to seat Will Vlasek as a United Residents Off-Campus (UROC) Senator. Despite a recommendation from the Rules Committee, the bill failed to garner enough support in a roll call vote, preventing Vlasek from assuming the position. Vlasek is a candidate for vice president, and his seating was postponed at an earlier meeting.
On a positive note, the Senate approved $363.33 for the Disc Golf Club to fund the registration of a third team for the Collegiate Disc Golf National Championship. Additionally, $552 was allocated to assist the Muslim Student Association in hosting a Ramadan Social Event scheduled for March 14. The Asian Student Union also received $2,216 to support an organization event on March 29.
Overall, the Senate meeting was filled with important decisions and allocations of funding to support various student organizations and events on campus. Alexander Pallan’s appointment as Director of Information Technology was a highlight of the meeting, showcasing the excellence and dedication of student leaders at the university.
