In 1965, just one year after 澳门六合彩历史记录 opened its doors, Daniel Mica, BA 鈥66, became the University鈥檚 very first Student Government (SG) president. 澳门六合彩历史记录 had almost 4,000 students at the time, and a gallon of gas was just 31 cents.
Mica, who would later go on to serve five terms as a U.S. congressman representing Florida鈥檚 11th District, recently returned to 澳门六合彩历史记录 for his induction into the Majestic Owls Society, a society dedicated to 澳门六合彩历史记录 alumni who have reached the 50th anniversary of their graduation.
While on campus for the ceremony, Mica stopped by the SG headquarters to meet with current SG President Michael Cairo, where they both reflected on their own experiences upholding SG鈥檚 highest office.
Mica was impressed with the size of Cairo鈥檚 office, and they both laughed when they compared each other鈥檚 annual budgets. Mica also shared a story about a deal he worked out with the Miami Dolphins, where he was able to meet with the team鈥檚 owner and get a block of tickets for 澳门六合彩历史记录 students. In exchange, 澳门六合彩历史记录 would let the Dolphins use its cheerleaders since the NFL team didn鈥檛 have any at the time.
鈥淎fter meeting and talking to Dan, he encouraged me to be fearless in my continued pursuit of achievement and how important it is to exude a strong, positive energy,鈥 said Cairo.
Before wrapping up their meeting, Cairo presented Mica with a plaque to honor his service to 澳门六合彩历史记录 as the University鈥檚 first student leader. Mica then signed a giant 澳门六合彩历史记录 logo on the wall that a handful of former 澳门六合彩历史记录 SG presidents鈥 signatures from prior visits. 聽
鈥淚 could not have been more impressed with the people in Student Government,鈥 said Mica. 鈥淢ichael Cairo and his team were knowledgeable, energetic and most gracious to me and my guests. 澳门六合彩历史记录 is fortunate to have such talent in their student leadership.鈥
