Colton became involved in the organization following his mission and has been active in etiquette and networking events. He also served on the Student Advisory Council. During his year as president, he will work with BYUSA and Y Serve, two other major student organizations.
“We will be positioned as the professional-development side of that triad and help connect students and create traditions for now and the future,” he says.
The Student Alumni leadership team for 2012–13 includes, from left, Ellie Ott, Jared Colton, Erika Nash, Andrew Bressler, Megan Hirschi, and Brielle Porter (not pictured).
Student alumni projects include the Traditions Ball, the Take a Cougar to Lunch program, the Brimhall Essay Contest, a financial-planning day, a food drive with the University
of Utah, finals survival kits, Parents Weekend, and etiquette dinners.

Andrew Bressler (’13), a senior in molecular biology from Rexburg, Idaho; Megan R. Hirschi (’13), a senior in biochemistry from Milton, Ga.; and Ellie A.
