The WSU Alumni Association’s student alumni group, Shockers Forever, has chosen officers for the upcoming 2016-2017 academic year.

“We have a very active and diverse group of students heading up our new Student Alumni Board,” says Tate Blanton ’13, WSUAA assistant director of alumni programs. “They are eager to continue Shockers Forever traditions — and create some of their own!”

Shockers Forever officers are Jared Santos, president, who is a sophomore majoring in accounting and finance; Margy Long, vice president, a senior who’s studying chemistry and business; Kayla Haase, secretary, a junior majoring in business management; Alyssa Ward, director of outreach, a sophomore who is working toward a degree in business management; Ashlyn Funston, director of traditions, a senior; Heba Madi, director of marketing, who is a junior; and members-at-large Robert Castleberry, a WSU senior, and Tim Eichler, a senior and a Wallace scholar who is majoring in aerospace engineering and minoring in mathematics.

“We’re all looking forward to the exciting opportunity of engaging with Wichita State students through our Shockers Forever activities and programs,” Blanton reports.

“We’re already gearing up for next year’s roster of events —  including Homecoming 2017, which is the largest event that we host each year," he adds. "Our officers and members always pull out all the stops with planning for this big event!”
