Vice President of Programming

---

I'm Jon, Vice President of Programming, and I enjoy traveling, being outdoors, and trying new foods. I am also a coffee addict, Indianapolis Colts fan, and will admit that I read the newspaper every day. To me, SGA is a great opportunity of which all students should take advantage. I have been able to go white water rafting in West Virginia, out to eat at an expensive Brazilian steakhouse, go on a trip to New Orleans, and many other unique experiences - all for little to no cost. SGA is symbolic of Butler pride, and within it you will find some of the most dedicated, passionate students on campus. Wherever your interests may lie, SGA can provide you with an avenue to pursue them. Whether it is dancing for 12 straight hours to raise money for Riley Hospital for Children during Dance Marathon, helping to plan homecoming festivities, or bringing an array of culturally diverse speakers to campus, SGA has opportunities that will enhance your experience during your four years at Butler.

Student Government Association Experience

I've been on Program Board since my freshman year when I was a committee member on Special Events. Since then, I have co-chaired the Recreation and Out & About in Indy committees. I am excited and eager to take on the role as Vice President of Programming!

Favorite Butler Memory

My favorite Butler memory was when the basketball team made it to the Final Four two years ago. Everyone on campus ran to the bulldog in front of Atherton in celebration! Television crews were everywhere, and campus literally went crazy. The entire next week, everything seemed to revolve around Butler Basketball - campus was packed with visitors, camera crews and people stocking up on Butler gear! It was a great time to be a student at Butler!
