New SA executive team strives for inclusion
The Thresher is happy to see the direction that the newly elected executive team is headed.
The Thresher is happy to see the direction that the newly elected executive team is headed. The appointment of McMurtry College junior Trent Navran as Executive Vice President shows that the team is devoted to serving the students and recognizes the controversial nature of the previous election, but is determined to move forward in a constructive manner. We believe the appointment is a great fit, as it will allow Trent to concentrate on his entrepreneurial interests, and we are excited to see what the coming year holds.
