Eagan Heath
President

Eagan is a history and political science major. This is his last year at UMM, and he hopes to make it a productive one. He has worked as a discipline representative, an RA, a TA, News Editor and Editor-in-Chief of The University Register. He has many hopes for MCSA and UMM this year, but none so high as getting a disc golf course over at Pomme de Terre park. In terms of more conventional college issues, he would like to see MCSA work on First-Year Seminar, the Honors program, Senior Seminars, Food Service, book prices, rental and landlord issues, recruiting and admissions, and many other things. Part of the process of identifying student issues entails communication with different parts of campus. This year’s MCSA execs are committed to communicating with more segments of campus generally, as well as taking concrete steps to assure that MCSA knows what issues students are facing. One way of doing this is to bring back the Advisory Council (described in the MCSA Constitution) which consists of Hall Governments and student group leaders. A corollary ought to exist for the academic side, as discipline reps almost never get together to discuss systemic problems and issues.

Overall, Eagan believes that things should be fun, and that students should take an active role in shaping UMM to be the way that they want it.

Adam Olson
Vice President for Student Services

Adam Olson is a Political Science major. When he ran for election to MCSA, he campaigned on creating a better attitude regarding the group, continuing the green energy momentum and restarting the advisory council. When he is not working on that stuff, he acts as a student liaison to various school institutions and generally deals with student issues. When not doing MCSA stuff, he does all sorts of random things like walk to the wind turbine at 3:00 in the morning or go to Alexandria at 4:00 in the morning.
