Change of plans for the MPC

It turns out I will NOT be on the Master Planning Committee this Fall.

I spoke to Lydia Anderson (an MPC member) over email and she said that while herself - and the board - appreciated my willingness to serve, they were looking for someone who could do the job for the full term. All I will say is it's already November.

Mari Freitag, ASUAF president, has sent out a second email looking for a student to fill the vacancy. Which means, if you or someone you know, is a UAF student who'd be interested in serving on the committee, email Mari at president@asuaf.org.

Will Mari or Lydia find someone soon? In all honesty, I don't think either of them will. Especially not before the end of the fall semester. The last student representative was Nikki Carvajal and she was president herself at the time.

But, I hope they do find someone. It's a student position on an official UAF committee that oversees (primarily) the practical application of aesthetic ideals on campus. So, they make UAF look pretty. At the very least, my fellow students, it'll look good on a resume and you'll get management experience to boot.

In recap, the student position on the MPC is open but will most likely stay open. I invite all comers to prove me wrong.
