Student Government

My parents are moving, and in the process of going through the house they presented me with a few more boxes of treasures, which provide the material for this post.

Post mission I went to UVCC (Utah Valley Community College, now Utah Valley University) to get my general education classes before moving on to BYU for my bachelors degree.

While there I did two years of student government. It was a good experience for me and generally a lot of fun. I made some good friends.

I ran for Public Relations the first year, but didn't get elected. However, I have this awesome campaign poster:



Let's zoom in:



I'm in the back row, 2nd from the right. Sporting a thin, have-I-reached-puberty mustache. And I've got some hair going, but not sure what you call it.

Everyone's got some 80s style going. Remember those softball shirts?

The next year I ran as Technology Senator and won. It was a good year of activities and debating the weighty matters of student politics (read: nothing of serious consequence).

The following year I ran for Academic Vice President with the Focus party and won. Here's the campaign poster:



Hair still long in the back, but more under control. Mustache out, Hubble glasses in (I still had them when I got married). Tweed jacket with skinny tie. Wow, what a dork. But that's how I looked then. Pretty funny now.

So there you go, more embarrassing treasures from my past.
