To lead its beginning steps, the fresh– man class elected President Luke Davis, Sec– retaryfTreasurer Dana Bielefeld and Vice Presi– dent Luke Williams. The class officers worked to make effective decisions for serving the freshman class. "We are ecstatic to step up and serve in a leadership position for our class," Davis said. "God led our steps to an opportunity to serve our classmates. I hope our steps will reflect His will." For the first time, freshman candidates had the opportunity to speak to their classmates before.the election in the Administration Audi– torium Sept. 23. The candidates presented their goals and ideas for their desired offices. "Voting can be difficult for freshmen be– cause we are new students and are unsure of what students to place our confidence in ," Bielefeld said. "The speeches allowed us to understand the goals and plans of each candi– date. This reduced the chances of a popularity contest." The freshman class officers understood how the beginning steps of college would determine the remaining steps. "We want to influence others positively," Williams said. "As we walk side by side with our fell ow classmates , we want our steps to lead in a positive direction." (Photo by Russ Phillips) Jonathan Byron-Westminster, Colo. Kristen Byron-Westminster, Colo.
