Morris said she is looking forward to continue advocating for students during the remainder of the term, in a time when students need it the most.
The Student Association Senate confirmed Catherine Morris, the senate’s chief policy adviser, as executive vice president in a special senate meeting Sunday.
SA President Brandon Hill presented SA Sen. Kate Carpenter, U-at-Large and a Hatchet photographer, last week as his pick for executive vice president after he ascended to the presidency and left the EVP spot open, but the senate rejected his nomination. Morris said she learned “what is possible in the SA,” like advising on legislation and facilitating meetings with administrators, while working under the “phenomenal leadership” of Hill and former SA EVP Amy Martin, who held the position in the 2019-20 school year.
