UMBC's Hamza Siddiqui Named Finalist for Student Regent

UMBC sophomore Hamza Siddiqui is going to have an exciting winter break, having been selected as one of three finalists for the position of University System of Maryland Student Regent for 2012-2013. The University System of Maryland Student Council also chose student government leaders from the College Park campus and Towson University as finalists.

The three finalists will meet with University System of Maryland officials in the next six weeks, and their names will be submitted to Governor O'Malley. The Governor will select the Student Regent early in 2012.

The Student Regent serves as the only student voice on the University System of Maryland's governing board, helping to set policies and priorities relating to academics, financial aid, facilities and budgets. UMBC junior Collin Wojciechowski is the current Student Regent.  Hamza is the tenth consecutive UMBC nominee to be selected as a finalist.

Congratulations, Hamza!
