Lane, a senior political scier
major, tilled in for Tom Williams,
rector of PTTS. Lane said theesi
rience helped him to understand
challenges PTTS faces.
“I think we learned whatsm
things PTTS does and what
responsible for and why it issn
difficult job." he said. "It'saeo
learning experience for me a
of other people who helped outia
to learn what PTTS deals with
some of the challenges they deal'
on a daily basis.”
Angela Newman, a comm
tions specialist for PTTS, said
dent senators took on a varien
PTTS roles.
"Someone [took] over thedis

someone [took] over the cast®
service manager who deals with
the angry students or anybody wh
upset with anything.'
