Unsuspecting student wins Chancellor-for-a-Day contest
Chancellor-for-a-Day contest
Callie Knoll, Omaha, Neb., freshman, was chosen last night as the winner of the Chancellor-for-a-Day contest.
Sponsored by Student Senate, the contest was part of a campaign to register at least 5,000 student voters. The names of students who registered
were entered into a raffle for the contest.
Knoll had no idea she had won. She said that when she registered, she was unaware of the drawing.
"I don't even know what I get to do," she said. "But the chancellor is going to have a tough class load, because I'm an architecture major."
The next step will be to contact the chancellor's office and find a day when Chancellor Hemenway and Knoll can switch roles.
"I think we're more excited that we're done with the voter registration drive in general," said Johanna Maska, Senate legislative director and Galesburg, Ill., junior.
This is the first year the contest has been used as a tool in Student Senate's voter registration drive. The final total of registered voters will be available this afternoon.

House fire kills two children seriously injures their father
HAYSVILLE — Two children died and their father was seriously injured yesterday when their home south of Havvicle caught fire, authorities said.
Fire officials haven't released the victims' names.
Sedgwick County Sheriff's deputies were the first to arrive at the fire after noon, but were unable to enter the home because it was engulfed in flames. Firefighters who arrived minutes later pulled four people from the home, said Ron Reavis, a division chief for the Sedgwick County Fire Department.
Both of the children, boys ages 1 and 3, were pronounced dead at the home. Their father was listed in serious condition at Wichita hospital. Another victim refused medical treatment.
The children's mother was at work when the fire started, Reavis said.
