Getting more buses to the Niagara-on-the-Lake campus on weekends is a key issue for the new Student Administrative Council (SAC) president.

Katryna McKenna was appointed to the new student council by the Board of Directors. She was SAC’s director of student and community relations at the Welland campus this past year and will be graduating from the college’s Community and Justice Services program in April.

“The voting was rather close,” the Vineland native says. “It all came down to votes.”

McKenna and her opponent Colin Stachura, met with the Board of Directors to present their platforms and what they would bring to the table as the new head of SAC earlier this month.

Other issues McKenna plans to tackle include raising awareness surrounding mental health.

McKenna will serve as president for one year, and if she chooses to, may run again next year to fill out a two-year term. The current president Brian Costantini, who held the role for the last two years, is giving McKenna a guiding hand before she takes over his role on May 1.
