Student Association president-elect Vishal Aswani said on Wednesday that more than 50 students applied for about 30 cabinet positions available next year.

Aswani, a junior, said he is “‘as happy as a cowboy at a rodeo’ with the turnout. ”

This number helps “show the amount of people that truly wish to be a part of change to the University,” Aswani said.

He added, “This is the first real test of how many people the Student Association can reach who may not necessarily fall into the typical SA mold and I am ecstatic with the result.”

Aswani and his staff are currently interviewing applicants and will make a final decision April 8.
