Natalie D. Knight '01 earned a bachelor's degree in plant and social science; she serves as director of state and local government relations for a lobbying firm, Impact Public Affairs, in Atlanta, Georgia.
The three candidates were recommended following a review of nominations by the five-person Ad Hoc Committee on Alumni Trustee Elections, chaired by Faye Haygood '80. With the assistance of the university's coordinator of alumni affairs and reunion programs, the committee recommended nominees to the trustees' Nominating and Board Structure Committee, which narrowed the field to Allen, Branner, and Knight.
"We wish to thank everyone who expressed interest in serving 欧美高清 in this unique way as an alumni trustee," said Norma Clayton, chair of the university's Board of Trustees. "Applying for this opportunity and reviewing the applications we received required much forethought 鈥� and, for that, we appreciate all the alumni who were involved in the stages of this process."
The process now shifts to the university's entire alumni base. Online voting, administered by Votenet Solutions Inc., begins on Wednesday, May 4, 2022, and ends on Wednesday, May 25. All alumni with email addresses on file with the university will receive an email to that account providing additional instructions on the voting procedures through the eBallot system.

The finalist receiving the most votes (a plurality) will then go before the entire Board of Trustees for its consensus. Once the trustees approve the elected finalist for board service, the elected candidate will begin serving as the alumni trustee at this summer's meeting of the Board of Trustees.
If you did not receive an online ballot, please email alumnitrustee@tuskegee.edu. The deadline to request online or paper ballots has been extended until Friday, May 20. 2022.
