ASSOCIATED STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT LEADING AND SUCCEEDING As THE 2004 ASB President, Gordon Fellows tries to make students ' lives a little easier I written by MARY MARGARET MILLER ' plwtogmphed h JD JOHNSON ■fsiliance and compassion are just two traits that Gordon Fellows has built his ( haracter upon. The son of Bettie and B ron Fellows, he grew up in a family business where he first learned the value of listening to others ' needs. Most importantly, he learned how to remain steadfast when times are tough. As Associated Student Body President, Fellows has relayed such dedication and determination into each of his endeavors. Fm jtist a student like everyone else, but at the same time, this position afibrds me the responsibility of trying to lead students through some of the tough times we ' ve faced this year. Becoming ASB President was a natural progression for Fellows. Beginning at a very young age, Fellows has always been drawn to leadershij) roles. The charisma and dri c of President Reagan introduced him t j politics and provoked him to join arious civic organizations in high school. ■■ ' Ihc whole point of being a leader is tiying to make the lives of the pe(jple you lead a little bit easier, Fellows said. He served as Kincannon Hall Senator his freshman year and has conliiuicd lo be a very acti ' c member oi ' the ASB-serving as executive liaison under Drew Snyder and also as a senator for the College of Liberal Arts. An intcrnali(jnal studies majni from Tupelo, Fellows is a member cjf Sigma . u Iraternity. Fellows admits that although he ser ed three years in the ASB, he never expected the myriad of responsibilities that the |)residen( y includes. ot onK docs he give many speeches and in ocalions, he also serves on various committees. While in ofHce, Fellows has made some huge accomplishments in on-campus technology. The addition of wireless Internet in ilic |.l). Williams l,ibi.ir as well as free spam lillers and anti-virus software has made many students breath easier when working with computers. Fellows also revamped the tradic appeals board by nixing ilii- ri ' l) in i)K ' cmenl, and allowed the . SB lo a|)|)oiiii and a|)pr() i ' ,ill board members. He also ni.ule wa cs ol change In allnwing each class lo I ' Ote for homecoming maids, a decision that once belonged solely to the M Club. During his term, the Transfer Task Force, the Freshman Focus Program and the Student Athletic Ad isor ' Commission were all initiated. ' hile attending Ole Miss, Fellows ser ' ed as a member of Omicron Delta Kappa, Order of Omega and Mortar Board. He also served as secretary of Lambda Sigma and as both president and parliamentarian of College Republicans. Fellows is a member of The whole point of being a .leader is trying to make the lives of the people you lead a little bit easier ' Fellows said. The L ' ni ' ersity of Mississippi Forensics Team and a two-time national ihamjjion in congressional debate. He was named ASB Senator of the Year and has served as alumni relations director and risk reduction manager for Sigma Nu PVaternity. Although great ellorts ha e been made to create a parking solulion for the Ole Miss campus, and to justify textbook prices and sell back alues. Fellows said that such large issues take time. Many of the accomplishments during his term began to be discussed three years ago. i think we have taken a lot of very big steps in the last 10 years as a uni crsity. There are so many good things going on, but there is so much ])otcnlial liir ihc things we can do better too. I guess the only bad thing about being ASB President is you can only do it for a year. That is the hardest part about this is trying to get as much accom] lished as I can in a year and then m. iking sure that I leave things in the right position for the jicrson that tomes in after me to continue them. 108 I The Ole Miss 2005
