Vice President

Analese Hauber

My name is Analese Hauber and I am your UROC Vice President for the 2019/2020 academic year. This year, I am a senior, majoring in Political Science and minoring in English and Spanish. 

In the past, I have been involved in the Inter-Residence Hall Association (IRHA) as a representative for Buchanan Residence Hall, Student Government as a United Residents Off-Campus senator, and the Vice President of UROC last year as well. I am passionate about residency issues and rights as student residents/renters.

Goals: My primary goals for this year are to expand UROC’s effectiveness as an organization and resource to students. I hope to make us more visible on campus (and off-campus) so that folks can utilize UROC as a resource and create a more cohesive, connected off-campus community. 

Treasurer & Webmaster

This is her first year as a UROC Senator, but has previously been engaged with Student Government as an At-Large for Student Initiatives Committee and as the Clerk for the Senate.

Goals: Increase awareness of UROC as an aid to students, as well as find new programs to engage off-campus students with campus life.

Secretary

Hayat Sumael

Hayat is a sophomore in Criminal Justice Studies and Political Science with a minor in Women’s and Gender Studies. She is from Sioux Falls, South Dakota and she is heavily involved on campus, including being a UROC Senator. She is excited to work with everyone and represent the community, in which I have been elected into.

Goals: Two of her main goals this semester for UROC are letting the people who live off-campus know that they have a voice on campus. She also wants to have events where we can have people off-campus come together and meet their representatives and get to know their community, so we as representatives know who we are representing.
