Running For: Secretary, Nominating Committee

Andrew Keene, CE’17

Campaign Statement

Coaching the Cooper Union soccer team for the past three years has been a wonderful way to connect with students and alumni; it shows me the vibrancy of the Cooper community and has reinforced how vital of an institution The Cooper Union is. I am running for the Nominating Committee and Secretary to work with the Alumni Association in its mission of supporting The Cooper Union’s return to free efforts, to promote and contribute to an active and engaged community of students, alumni, faculty and friends of The Cooper Union, and to encourage others to participate in and invigorate this important community that so many have benefited immensely from.
