GOOD JOB!! Congrats to Mr. Galloway. Hopefully, his stewardship on the board will continue to inform on policy matters, and the athletic department would do well to make this fellow their best friend.
I served on Academic Affairs Committee '92/'93 in similar capacity as he has the Athletics committee. There are a group of students that loosely report to him; each serves on a different committee. The Student Body President also serves traditionally on one or two committees (at least he/she did under Pye). The students advise the board on policy matters, and prior to Junkins serving as Chair, the Student Trustee, to which Mr. Galloway is ascending, was no ex-officio. The Student Trustee was a voting member of the BOT. As well, the student representative to Buildings & Grounds actually chaired the committee. Huge job. Taylor Bowen, currently of AMLI Properties and on P&Z in Dallas, served in this role when I was there. Junkins screwed all of this up. He didn't believe that students needed to serve in that significant a capacity. I think the guy was generally a good Chair (God rest his soul), but on this issue, he was flat wrong, IMHO. And from what I heard, he really was a jerk about it to the student trustee at the time.

Andrew is an extremely bright and sociable athlete, I do believe he's currently interning at Southwest Airlines right now and is well on his way to a promising future :) Good luck Andrew!
