The Recruitment Advisory Committee for the next ASUCD Business Manager has selected three top candidates: Janice Corbett, Emily Sanson-Smith and Christine Soldahl. Forums on May 28, June 3 and June 4 have been scheduled for students, faculty and staff to learn more about each candidate. All three candidates once attended UC Davis as students and two currently work at UC Davis, though none of the candidates currently work in the Association.

As an undergrad, she was the assistant business manager of ASUCD for three years and held membership on the Program and Facilities Committee, Campus Unions and Recreation Board, Cal Aggie Student Alumni Association, Dean’s Student Advisory Committee, Student Activities Advisory Committee and the Picnic Day Planning Committee.

She received her BS in fermentation science as well as her MBA from UC Davis. At UC Davis, she was a research assistant and was on the Graduate School of Management’s Admission Committee, Alumni Board and Dean’s Advisory Council.
