![One of two newest Board of Trustee members, Julie Everett introduces herself to the board and talks about her history as an Eastern alumna during the BOT meeting Friday afternoon in the Grand Ballroom. “I seeked my MBA here at EIU, and it was a wonderful experience,” Everett said. “My passions, both professionally and through volunteering, would be supporting youth, but then also creating opportunities for individuals who may be underserved. I see that sometimes [students] can also be very, very excited to be in this education space. I absolutely believe that [higher education] is a gateway for so many big things in someone’s life. I feel like my MBA is what opened all the doors [for me].”](https://www.dailyeasternnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/BOT_01-900x600.jpg)
