When Anna Kauffmann and Angela
Jacobs ran together in the Student
Activities Council executive election
they were together as more than just
running mates — they also are
roommates. Kauffmann found out she
was elected president of SAC for the
2013-2014 academic year on April 5 in
front of Kent Library while her running
mate Jacobs was elected as vice
president for the same term.
“I felt pretty confident about it, but I
also know that you can’t completely put
your hopes into it and not win,” Jacobs
said.“I had the mind set and was
hopeful that I was going to win. But I
knew the other person that was
running also, and I knew that they
would do a good job and so if they got
elected I would be OK with that
because that was how it was supposed
to be.”
The duo said they work well
together and have similar ideas for how
they plan to run SAC in the fall.
“Mainly maintain what [SAC] is now
because this year we’ve made a lot of
great changes and our attendance has
increased like crazy,” Kauffmann said
about their plans.“I really want to reach
a different group on campus, I want to
get a different groups of students
involved in our activities and our
events and bring in a lot of new
members and just make our meetings
fun and a positive atmosphere.”
SAC normally has 30 students
attend its weekly meetings, but there is
always room for new members.
“With the members of SAC, it’s just
coming together,” Jacobs said.“I feel
this year some people have been kind
of distant and we haven’t had the
community that we have wanted. I
really want to be able to build that
community so that people will speak
and the meetings are really open up to
what they want to see on campus and
what they want to change with SAC and
just improvements.”
Other members elected to the
executive board were administrative
assistantTim Rosemann, special events
coordinatorsTyler Rosemann and Ben
Mulholland, comedy coordinator Kayla
Mengwasser, music coordinator Kynli
Smith, graphic designer Steven
Amrhein, social media coordinator
Trevor Mulholland, films and lectures
coordinator Chris Dzurick and
historian JennaWehner.
According to Kauffmann, as
president of SAC she will be responsible
for leading the meetings, which consist
of weekly executive and general body
meetings as well as managing events
and making sure they are completed
smoothly with enough volunteers.
The vice president’s role, according
to Jacobs, is to talk to prospective
students about SAC on Show Me Days,
award points to SAC members who
participate in events as well as
volunteer, award member of the month
prizes, plan the holiday parties and
offer support to the president.
SAC operates on a point system for
its members.Those who volunteer and
participate gain a point for each activity
and once they reach a certain goal they
are rewarded with a prize. Jacobs said
this is a great way to keep people active
in the organization.
“There’s a lot of students that really
enjoy volunteering who show up at
almost all our events and they get lots
of points,” Jacobs said.“It’s a good
incentive and it’s also a way of
rewarding those who are volunteering
and supporting SAC fully.”
Both executive members said they
are excited for next year and hope to
keep the meetings fun and open for
students to express their opinions on
what they would like SAC to become in
the future. Meetings are at 7 p.m. on
Tuesdays in the University Center
Redhawks room.

Autism Center expands after receiving
new programming and federal funding
In the last few months, there have been changes to how the
Autism Center at Southeast Missouri State University
operates. In January the center accepted programming
from the University of MissouriThompson Center in
Columbia, Mo., according to the director of the center
Connie Hebert.
This entitled the center, the lone resource of its kind for
the southeast Missouri area, to funding.
“There are a number of Southeast students who have an
autism diagnosis,” said Dr.Victoria Moore, a clinical
psychologist who is employed at the center.“Some of them
participate in services here at our center, such as social skills
groups. Our primary purpose is to provide diagnostic
services and direct therapies, so the majority of our clients
are not of college age. Most of our clients come from the
community, and we’ve served families from Arkansas,
Tennessee, Kansas and Illinois as well as those from
southeast Missouri.”
Since assuming this increase in area after the first of the
year, three behavioral analysts have been added to the
full-time staff at the center. Also, the staff at the center has
increased to include a second psychologist to handle the
workload of the diagnostic evaluations, Hebert said.
