A new president was appointed to the ASCC executive board without a formal announcement.
Daniel Caldera, who took office as a senator in Citrus’s student government on April 22, was elected president by the executive board on July 21, Student Life Supervisor Rosario Garcia said in an email interview.
Caldera “showed interest in the president position and gave the board a statement of why he should be elected,” Garcia said, and was subsequently elected.
The results of ASCC’s April election revealed a small executive board consisting of a legislative liaison, student trustee and three senators, but no president or vice president.
ASCC’s constitution says that the executive board’s elective officers shall consist of a president, vice president, student trustee, legislative liaison and up to seven senators. It also says that the executive board may nominate members to fill vacancies after 10 days if the president has not appointed anyone.
Caldera was emailed Wednesday for an interview, but has not responded to confirm availability.
