Lauren Pedigo
Vice President of Public Relations
I'm
Lauren, Vice President of Public Relations Board, and I adore
anything rich in creativity, culture and new experiences. I'm a
spicy food addict, traveling enthusiast, sports fanatic and social
media junkie. I believe relationships are the most important thing
in life, that's why I love being part of SGA. I've developed
friendships and met people I never would have otherwise. For me,
SGA is synonymous with unique memories like traveling to Final Four
basketball games in Houston, going skydiving, carrying 80 balloons
around campus (and looking completely ridiculous!) to decorate for
an event, designing posters and giving our TONS of free stuff to
Butler students through my involvement with Blue Crew. I've been
looking forward to being VP of Public Relations Board for over a
year and I'm so excited to bring my passion for SGA to the
students.

was!

Culture

Student Government Association Experience
- I've been on PR Board every semester I've been at
Butler. I started on Blue Crew giving our free items to students,
worked on special events planning and now I'm excited about using
my creativity and leadership experience to transform the way SGA

Favorite Butler Memory
- Without a doubt it was being able to travel to both
Final Fours! Such a memorable experience with great people! A close
second was spending a semester abroad in London where I traveled
Europe, met new friends, interned at an international company and
fell in love with the city.
