involved students in the deci
sion-making process, he said.
Cheatham disagrees with
Coventry’s evaluation of his
presidency.
“This has been another year
where students didn’t feel they
were accurately represented,
and I hope Matt (Josefy)
changes that,” he said.
As rain forced State of the
University Address listeners to
gather under the rotunda of the
Academic Building, Coventry
introduced new student body
president Matt Josefy.
Josefy, a junior accounting
major, said Coventry has been
his friend and mentor who
helped transition him into his
term as SBP.
“I am not starting a new
race,” Josefy said. “I am picking
up the baton from Zac and con
tinuing.”
While Coventry reflects on
his term and Josefy prepares for
the beginning of his year in
office, other student leaders are
also planning for the challenges
of the upcoming year.
“1 am not concerned with the
past or with Zac’s administra
tion,” said freshman marketing
major Kerri Ward, organizer of
the 28-member senate bloc that
ran in support of Cheatham for
student body president. “I am
concerned with Matt’s adminis
tration and our efforts as we
work together.”

program and a promotions area, and will improve
the SGA Web site.
Herreth said he plans to build a strong founda
tion for the Office of Communications and hopes
students are well informed on important matters
such as tuition deregulation.
“(With) anything new you want a strong foun
dation,” Herreth said.
Josefy said communications is key in his plat
form while running.
Josefy said he chose Herreth because his
strong interview and his ties with the Residence
Hall Association showed Josefy that Herreth had
good communication skills.
Josefy said Derr, a sophomore biology major,
was chosen to head operations because of her
leadership experience in Texas Aggies Making
Change and her involvement with SGA commit
tees this year.
“I saw need for more unity and accountability
among committees,” Derr said. “I want to make
all programs cohesive.”
The position of EVP operations oversees
finance, development, management and diversity.
Derr said her plan for dealing with diversity
is to continue the work of current executive
Pablo Rodriguez to make “SGA lead the diversi
ty initiative.”
Derr pointed to the many SGA-sponsored
diversity events, such as the diversity symposium,
saying that SGA is a leader on the controversial
campus issue.
As EVP for policy, Megan Stephenson will
oversee academic affairs, legislative relations, stu
dent services and the new experiential education.
Experiential education is applying classroom
solutions to campus problems and expanding on-
campus internships, said Stephenson, currently
associate vice president for Legislative Relations.
“An example would be if we needed design of
a green space, on one of the many quads around
campus, we could let architecture students submit
proposals,” Stephenson said. “It ties real-life
things into education.”
Julie Holzer was also announced as Josefy’s
assistant, a position which needs no approval in
the senate.
Iraq
Continued from page 1A
Money from international oil
sales is expected to be the major
source of income to help Iraq
rebuild after three wars and
more than a decade of economic
sanctions. Crear said it was
unclear when exports might
resume.
Any loss of oil from Iraq —
home to the world’s second-
largest oil reserves — crimps
supplies for importing coun
tries, including the United
States, which gets 2 percent of
its imported crude from Iraq.
Iraq shut down oil produc
tion in mid-March ahead of the
war. Before that, the country
was pumping around 2.8 million
barrels a day, or 3 percent of
global supplies.
