Hey guys I really appreciate you taking the time to check out our website! Mattie and I have worked very hard on this campaign, and we assure you that our hard work will not stop there. A mentor once told me “Don’t treat this university like a Drive-thru restaurant, instead get involved and make a difference.” Since that meeting I have aimed to make the absolute most of my collegiate experience. As a result, I feel that I am able to bring a very diverse and unique background to the Executive Branch of the Associated Student Government. Mattie and I have chosen the motto “A Time for Greatness.” Our stance is simply this: Why should we allow our Student Government to be good when it can be great? Please don’t forget to vote in the election. Voting begins on April 9th at 9am and will conclude on April 12th at 4pm. If you have any suggestions, please feel free to contact us at any time. Thanks again!!!

Hello! My name is Mattie Bookhout, and I am ready and willing to serve you as the secretary of your Associated Student Government. As a first-year student at the University of Arkansas, I feel that I can bring a new perspective to the Associated Student Government and thus aid in the betterment of our campus as a whole. Dick and I are so excited about the upcoming year. We recently attended COSGA, the Conference on Student Government Associations, in College Station, Texas. There, we received great insight regarding the possibilities for our University, and we cannot wait to implement them. As our slogan states, we believe it is “a time for greatness” here on the University of Arkansas campus, and we will not settle for anything less!

Thank you in advance for your support and your vote!
