"Even early on, Nick has always known what he has wanted to do," Marilyn Sterner said. "He has always been very ambitious and involved." Serner first got involved in Student Senate when he was a freshman and met Student Senate's legislative director at the time. She convinced him to get involved in one of the committees. Sterner's relationship with Senate extends even into his personal life. Sterner has been dating Catherine Bell, a former student body vice president, for two years. Bell is in her first year of law school at Kansas. "She has helped me out a lot throughout the election," Sterner said. "She puts things into perspective for me and gives some historical insight into the campaign." Sterner knows that running for president for the KUnited coalition comes with some pressure. KUnited has not lost in a Senate election since becoming a coalition, and that makes Sterner and Jones the favorite for this year's election, KUnited's fourth. "I like the tradition KUnited has and the pressure for excellence that comes with it," Sterner said. After college, Sterner said he would probably go to law school or try to get his master's degree in business administration. — Edited by Azita Tafreshi Jardon CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8A scholarship hall, Jardon said she was the only person there involved in greek life. Stereotypes have never bothered jardon, as she said in high school she was the cheerleader who dated the captain of the football team. "I did the Science Olympiad," Jardon said. "It doesn't get much worse than that." Jardon said that before she dated the captain of the football team, she was a nerd in middle school. She knows that she is different, but said she would never change who she was or what she stands for. Growing up in Johnson County, Jardon said everyone was basically the same. When she arrived at college she liked seeing how different people were, and that made her want to get involved in various activities on campus. Although Jardon has never served in Student Senate before, she still has a long list of activities at school. Besides being in a sorority, Jardon has been the Baby Jay mascot since last April and had also served on the homecoming committee in 2004, along with being a member of the scholarship hall selection committee. Even though she hasn't served in Senate, Jardon said she had been thinking about running for president for a long time. "It's time to change Senate," Jardon said. "I think we can be the ones to do that." Her running mate, Stephanie Craig, thinks that she and Jardon can end Delta Force's three-year losing streak. Craig said that Elaine was a different type of candidate than past Delta Force candidates because she was more involved on campus and had a great understanding of how things work on campus. — Edited by Lori Bettes ONLINE COURSES OR 8 WEEK SESSION May 24 to July 21 1ST FIVE WEEK SESSION May 24 TO June 30 2nd FIVE WEEK SESSION July 5 to August 4 (785) 231-1010 www.washburn.edu Baby Jay's Feast: •2 Medium pizzas any way you want it •10 breadsticks •2-liter of pop Only $19.99 843-3000 843-2211 843-7044 23rd & Louisiana ●6th & Wakarusa ●9th & Mass COME HEAR Yehiel Leiter CHIEF OF STAFF FOR ISRAELI FINANCE MINISTER, BENJAMIN NETANYAHU JORDAN Caravan for Democracy Tuesday, April 12th Hansen Hall, Dole Institute of Politics 7:30 PM (Doors open at 7:00 PM) University of Kansas Caravan for Democracy is co-sponsored by KU Hillel, KUIA, AEPi, SDT, International Studies Department Space is limited-register now!
