Young
continued from page 1A
Now, three years after winning the
race, Young has relocated down In
terstate 5 to be a University senior
and aspiring law student who has
spent five years fighting for student
interest — and is currently one of
two student members on the Oregon
State Board of Higher Education.
As president of PSU, Young suc
cessfully advocated for numerous
student interest issues including
keeping students on the Oregon
Health Plan, running a successful
bone marrow drive for a needy stu
dent, advocating for lower student
loan rates and establishing a 24
hour computer lab and library ac
cess at PSU.
“Its your job as a student to create
an environment of opportunity,” he
said. “When I got into a position of
power, I did not waste my time. ”
Young has continued to fight for
student interest while serving on
the Oregon State Board of Higher
Education. Consisting of 11 mem
bers, the board is the governing
body for the seven Oregon Univer
sity System campuses. Members
are appointed by Gov. John
Kitzhaber and confirmed by the
Oregon State Senate. Nine mem
bers are appointed for a four-year
term and the two student members
are appointed for a two-year term.
The 22 year old was appointed to
the board in June 2000 and has been
an active member since his first day.
He saw his position on the board as
an opportunity to be the voice of
Oregon students, and it was his goal
to make his voice heard.
“I wanted to be taken serious
ly,” he said. “Students have not

been taken seriously, and I have
worked to change that attitude to
ward students.”
As a member of the State Board
of Higher Education, he has suc
cessfully fought for student inter
est. He advocated for increased
state investment in the OUS and
supported permanent Inter-Institu
tional Faculty Senate and Oregon
State Association report items on
the OUS board agenda.
Erin Watari has worked with
Young on the board and has
known him since he was a fresh
man at PSU. Watari said working
with Young has been educational
and enjoyable.
“He’s so great. He has such heart
and true passion, and he’s always
working in the best interest of pre
serving public higher education,”
Watari said.“ He has so much pas
sion for the board. To be able to
work with somebody like that has
been so educational.”
Young and Watari successfully
lobbied to get student representa
tives on the OUS chancellor search
committee. As members of the
committee, students participate in
the screening and selection process
to find the next OUS chancellor.
Young was honored when he was
selected as a student participant.
John Wykoff, a former lobbyist
for the Oregon Student Association,
said Young and Watari are the most
effective student members to be on
the board in years.
“They have served the students
of Oregon extremely well,” Wykoff
said. “They have been very effec
tive advocates.”
