Roman Schelhorn, President<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Major: Business Administration, International Business, Economics<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goal in student government this year: As a part of the first-year class, our main objective is to create and plan a social event for the entire first-year class. For that, I intend to take advantage of the upperclassmen’s experience and advice so that my fellow student government members and I can most effectively collaborate and organize something unique for the whole class to enjoy. As it pertains to the entire student government, I am still learning the ropes, but I am doing so quickly. I believe I will be able to contribute more to the organization’s efforts in the near future<\/a>, thus making a greater positive impact on the entirety of this school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previous experience in student government: I possess several years of student government experience; I have been a part of both my class’s student government and my school’s student council each year throughout middle school and high school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Current career aspirations: Personally, I aspire to carve my own path as an entrepreneur by starting my own business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LVC event most excited for: With all the talk about Homecoming recently, it’s hard not to be excited to see what the event is like here at LVC. Although, I am equally excited about Dutchmen Day since many of the upperclassmen have had nothing but good things to say about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
