(Bluefield)—Jonathan Murray, President of the Bluefield State College Student Government Association, has been elected to a one-year term as Vice Chair for the State Advisory Council of Students (ACS). Murray will collaborate with Matthew James, Chair/State ACS, during a presentation to the West Virginia Senate and House Education Committees, along with the chancellors of the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission and the Community & Technical College System of West Virginia on October 17 at Marshall University.
“We will discuss the issues that are most important among students at the state’s public two-year and four-year colleges and universities,” Murray said. “We’ll talk about things like textbook affordability, gas prices and their impact upon students’ pursuit of a college education, and funding for higher education.”
“I’m very fortunate to be able to work with Matthew James,” Murray continued. “He and I went to Bluefield High School and played sports together, so we understand how to work together.”
“It’s an honor to have been elected to serve students from the state’s public colleges and universities, and to represent Bluefield State College in this capacity,” he added. The State ACS includes student representation from each of West Virginia’s public baccalaureate and community & technical colleges.
