Earlier this month, Governor Perry appointed Longhorn undergraduate Nash Horne of Austin to serve as the next student regent on the UT System Board of Regents beginning June 1. Nash is a political communications major and currently serves as the external financial director for UT Austin’s Student Government. His term as student regent will expire May 31, 2014.

Student regents serve a valuable function on the board, offering insights that only current students could have. I’m proud of Nash and look forward to watching his service on the board.
