No UTA student has applied yet for the UT System Student Regent position. The deadline to apply is 5 p.m. today. The opening is for a non-voting student regent position on the UT System Board of Regents. While the student cannot vote, whoever is chosen will act as the student voice. The term would be from June 1, 2010 to May 31, 2011. “It’s really a great position, you get to sit on the board for all the people who make the decisions for the entire system,” said Kachi Amajor, Student Congress External Relations director. “It’s like being on Barack Obama’s cabinet, but for the UT System — that’s the caliber of the position.” She said she heard from about four to five students that are interested in the position and answered their questions — they just haven’t submitted applications. Applications can be picked up in the Student Congress office located in the University Center lower level or printed off of the SC Web site. She said she thinks the chances of the regent being from UTA are high because there hasn’t been one and UTA has qualified students. “I think the other schools have their work cut out for them because we have some sharp-shooters,” she said.
