fl’m running for the council,”
Irring said, “because I got in-
>sted in their issues, especially
zoning. But as the liaison I felt li
mited to student affairs, and it would
be nice to have a voice and be able to
vote.
T’m interested in College Station
because it’s where I live. It’s a nice
city that’s growing fast and I want to
see it maintain its beauty and atmos
phere.”
Herring is the only student run
ning for a council position in this
election. There are four places open
and all but one of the incumbents are
running again.
City Council Coordinator Mandy
Milberger said students have run in
the past, but none have served on

Herring says she is running not as
a student representative, but as a
member of the community. She said
her response from College Station
residents has been good so far.
I m trying to talk to as many peo
ple as possible, Herring said. “My
campaign will be a lot of word of
mouth since I don’t have that much
money to spend.
I ve talked to some off-campus
student groups and to several people
in leadership positions already. I’m
trying to get the news out.”
Herring said she has a hard month
of campaigning ahead of her that is
going to involve a great deal of time.
If she is elected to the two-year
term. Herring said she will take few
er hours and not be involved with
student senate in order to compen
sate for the time and responsibility
with City Council.
Council members meet twice a
month and are not paid for the time
they spend on ciy business.
