SGA VP hopes lights on stillwater is springboard journey. It represents not only the culmination of months of hard work, but also years of grooming and honing his leadership skills. Howell said he hopes Lights on Stillwater will be the springboard that launches his tenure as SGA vice president to a level the position hasn’t yet seen. “I think this event will build a ton of momentum toward what we want to do this year,” Howell said. “This event has kind of become, in a way, a family reunion for students and the community, and I hope they’ll be able to connect even more than in previous years.” Although this is sure to be the largest event Howell has planned, it isn’t his first experience in highpressure situations since arriving on campus. Howell, an English and history senior, quickly started getting involved in Stillwater. In his first year, he became a member of Freshman Representative Council, a branch of SGA

idge Howell has always been a leader. His opportunities to embrace leadership roles began to come early, and as an outgoing and highly motivated person, increasingly more often. Howell, the Student Government Association vice president, had his first taste in the trendsetting business as a young, inexperienced, yet determined student at Checotah High School in eastern Oklahoma. Always one to seek out opportunities to serve his community, Howell was an officer in student council and FFA. Each year, he made an impression on those around him and as a result, he propelled himself to higher rungs within the organizations. “Some of the best ways to find opportunities to serve come through lead-

SGA Vice President Ridge Howell, planner of the annual Lights on Stillwater, said the event, for which planning started in May, has grown a lot and is the biggest it’s been.

ership,” Howell said. “In student council and FFA in high school, I had the opportunity to create different volunteer programs

that allowed me to serve in unique ways throughout the community.” It’s that same desire to lead — to impact and

better the lives of those he serves — that led Howell to where he is. Wednesday night marks a major milestone on his

that allows new students a means of being heard. It was in FRC that Howell met Dillon Johnson. That first year was the foundation of what eventually became the current SGA Administration. As sophomores, Howell and Johnson were elected to positions within SGA, Howell as a cog in the executive side of Student Government and Johnson as a member of the Senate. Last year, when Johnson decided to run for SGA President, he knew his running mate needed certain qualities. He or she needed to be hard working, determined and, most of all, willing to go the extra mile to serve the students of Oklahoma State. He found what he was looking for in Howell. “I thought about how much the VP and the president have worked together in the past,” Johnson said. “And Ridge is just one of the most effective people I know when it comes to getting things done.

c ov e r s to ry STORY CONTINUEd from page 2

“It’s takes a lot of hard work from both parties. It’s cheesy, I know, but ultimately it’s really about dedication to the students, and he’s definitely shown that.” Johnson had originally targeted Howell to be his running mate a year earlier. Howell, however, felt he needed more experience and time working in SGA and passed on the offer, but he was sure to leave the door open for future elections. So when 2015 rolled around, Johnson knew who to call. “He had asked me a few times, and I told him I needed to put some thought into it,” Howell said. “And one day I just

decided it was what I wanted to do.” After some serious consideration and introspection, Howell told Johnson he was on board. Two weeks into his junior year, Howell sent a simple three-word text to Johnson. “Let’s do it.” Those three words were all the pair needed to launch the campaign in earnest and begin the trek into the administration. Howell and Johnson worked tirelessly for months getting the campaign off the ground. It’s that same work ethic that has continually paid off during their years at OSU and has helped Howell build what he and Johnson said they think will be the

largest Lights on Stillwater. “I don’t have empirical evidence to indicate it, but since I’ve been here, this will be the biggest Lights on Stillwater I’ve seen,” Johnson said. Howell has poured months of work into planning this event. He said he began preparing for Lights on Stillwater two weeks after the election results were announced in March. Howell spent the previous summer in Stillwater and utilized that time to expand Lights on Stillwater’s reach. Susan Simmons, SGA’s senior administrative support specialist, said she and Ridge began reaching out to businesses in the community as soon as

possible. “Ridge went out and recruited vendors and connected with various student groups as well as all of the design work,” Simmons said. “There is a lot of stuff we do together,

and I love working with Ridge. We just really mesh well together.” Over the summer, Howell, with the help of Simmons, went door to door to businesses across Stillwater, hoping to find new and exciting vendors. It’s an approach that, Howell said, has resulted in both the most booths and highest budget yet for Lights on Stillwater. “We’re at our greatest number of vendors that we’ve ever had,” Howell said. “We’ve also raised more money this year, significantly so, than any previous year that I’m aware of.” Howell said it’s difficult to imagine what will go through his head once Lights on Stillwater

is over, but for the time being, he’s too focused on running a smooth event to slow down. This event means a great deal to Howell and his future as the SGA vice president, he said. But when it comes time to consider his achievement, he said he’ll relish it for as long as he can. “I’m sure it’ll just be a surreal feeling,” Howell said. “But you’ll have to ask me again Thursday morning. I’ll be too worried to think about it before then.” >To read a preview of Lights on Stillwater, turn to Page 4. F o l l o w T h e O ’ C o l ly : @ o c o l ly

2016 Lights on Stillwater organizers expect record booth registrations

OSU TEXTBOOKS COST LESS AT

BY katie All en Staff Reporter

Stillwater is about to be lit. The OSU Student Government Association expects a record number of booth registrations for Lights on Stillwater, set to take place from 7-9 p.m. Wednesday on Hall of Fame Avenue north of Boone Pickens Stadium. Entry for visitors is $1 or a canned good. The event takes place annually the first Wednesday of the school year to showcase local businesses and OSU involvement opportunities. The SGA committee in charge of planning the event contains primarily two people, Susan Simmons and Ridge Howell. Howell, SGA vice president, said the event will feature new booths, student favorites and exciting giveaways. Although over 200 booths have already committed, the list is still growing. “We’re still getting students’ booths in,” Howell said. “We’ll probably have around 220, but I won’t really know until (Wednesday) morning because we’ll accept through (Tuesday).” The process started in the spring, said Simmons, SGA senior administrative support specialist. She handled registration forms and assuring the closing of Hall of Fame between Washington and Knoblock. Students will find several new booths as well as their

returning favorites. Howell said the event will have 15 to 20 new booths on site. “Some of them we’re really excited about,” Howell said. “We have Kind and CLIF bars coming. They’ll be giving out free samples. Chipotle is also coming, which is a new booth, and some others, but those are some of our most exciting ones.” Food seems to be a reigning favorite through the years for Lights on Stillwater. Howell said Papa John’s’ pizza samples and Qdoba’s free chips and queso are some of the more popular items. “Also, we have a lot of student booth groups that are popular,” Howell said. “Cowboython and Freshman Representative Council, those will both be popular booths because we have a lot of people interested in that, but I’d definitely say if a booth is giving something away, students are interested. They’re definitely interested in food.” Aside from food, giveaways and prizes are definitely the highlight of Lights

on Stillwater. Thanks to the hard work of SGA and its sponsors, including Stillwater Radio and the Chamber of Commerce, vendors at the annual event will offer plenty of opportunities to register to win prizes and giveaways including shirts, gift cards and more. The event will also feature a coin toss giveaway of $1,500 on the practice field at the Sherman E. Smith Training Center across the street from the stadium. Howell said “a fun guest” will be handling the coin toss, which will be broadcast on Stillwater Radio. Once the event begins, Simmons and Howell will get the chance to soak in the result of their time. “It’s fun, but it’s a lot of hard work, too,” Simmons said. “After about 7, and we get all the vendors set, then it’s our time to relax and kind of see what all of our efforts put together.” Riley Medill and Nathan Ruiz contributed to this report.
