“What a wonderful honor it is to be given the responsibility to lead an organization that I truly love so much,” DeLoach said. “I look forward to an adventure and challenge ahead.”

Schneider, who has been an advertising sales representative this semester, said his main priority is to create a better form of communication between his staff and prospective advertisers.

“As the new advertising manager my goal is to create a more efficient, friendly and successful advertising team,” Schneider, a native of Pueblo, Colo., said. “I will work hard to build a strong relationship with advertisers in the community through extensive employee training.”

DeLoach will be replacing senior Ram Luthra, a news-editorial journalism and political science major, and Schneider will be taking over duties for Leslie Moeller, a sophomore advertising/publicatioons major.
