President Cecil O. Samuelson to host question and answer session

President Cecil O. Samuelson will address and answer questions from students on a variety of topics at noon Thursday, Oct. 7, in the Varsity Theatre of the Wilkinson Student Center.

The Brigham Young University Student Advisory Council sponsors the meeting as part of their vision to serve as advisers to the administration, says Chad Johnson, program director of the SAC question-and-answer meetings.

"This is an approachable setting where students feel like their questions are important, and it offers students a unique chance to make their voice heard," Johnson says.

The Student Advisory Council's mission is to serve the BYU community by accurately representing student opinion to the administration, enhancing their ability to make informed decisions.
