UMBC's Brandon Enriquez Selected as Student Regent Finalist

by David Hoffman

UMBC junior Brandon Enriquez has been selected as one of three finalists from across the University System of Maryland (USM) for the position of 2016-2017 Student Regent. The Student Regent serves as a voting member of the USM Board of Regents, representing more than 168,000 undergraduate and graduate students from 12 institutions, including UMBC. 

Brandon who is pursuing a double major in Economics and Mathematics, has been deeply involved in research on the economics of higher education.  He completed a summer research fellowship at Harvard University in 2015. He is a UMBC Meyerhoff Scholar and Honors College student.

Brandon is also President of the UMBC College Democrats, and a former writer for the U.S. Democrazy blog.

The three Student Regent finalists will meet with University System of Maryland officials in the coming weeks, and their names will be submitted to Governor Hogan. The Governor will select the Student Regent later this spring.

Congratulations, Brandon!
