Council conservative Sterling P.A. Darling `01 said he expected SAC to select committee representatives with different ideologies.

“At least there is a balanced representation of what is a dividing issue on [SAC],” Darling said.

Council President Paul A. Gusmorino `02 said he was pleased with the way the elections were run.

“SAC did a good job of getting the word out about the election,” Gusmorino said. “They selected nominees with a broad range of opinions. I don’t know Matthew, but Ben has a lot of experience with labor issues.”

The council will hold a special meeting today to confirm McKean and Milikowsky’s appointments. It will require a majority vote of the council to approve each candidate.
