ASMSU officials announced James Perra as the new association director for MSU's undergraduate student government last week.

Perra, a psychology senior, has been working as interim association director since October, after Joe Mignano resigned from the position in August.

As association director, Perra oversees the executive board and steering committee. He also acts as a communication bridge between the Academic and Student assemblies.

Perra learned of his appointment at the Academic Assembly meeting Tuesday. He said he was happy not to have to write interim on top of memos from now on.

Perra will officially take over the position until March.
