What are you most excited to do as an officer?

I am most excited to plan different events throughout the year and help lead the WJCL, giving back to such a great organization.

What new initiatives do you plan to pursue?

I am planning on organizing a novice certamen invitational and a Ludi tournament to encourage the WJCL spirit to continue.

Do you have any advice for future candidates?

If you are unsure whether to run, you should run because you will never succeed unless you try.

What three things would you take to a desert island besides food and water?

A boat, a volleyball named Wilson, and a friend.

Skittles or M&Ms?

M&Ms.

President Mark Bechthold, BA
