ASUSU gets a new name
In a special election Oct. 22-23 amending the Associated Students of Utah State University constitution, students voted 71 percent in favor of changing the name of the student association to the Utah State University Student Association, or USU/SA.
Other constitutional changes included grammatical and word fixes and expanding the student officer title of Public Relations Director to Public Relations and Marketing Director.
“We are pleased with student participation in the special election,” said Casey Saxton, the Public Relations and Marketing Director and elections chair for USU/SA in a press release. “In an election for something that doesn’t involve a candidate, we are pleased with the turnout.”
In favor: 586, or 71%
Against: 244, or 29%
