Gov. Hogan Appoints Morgan Student to Maryland Youth Advisory Council

Posted By: Hija Chang on October 29, 2015

Morgan sophomore and political science major Sydney P. Parker has a passion for public service and a longtime interest in juvenile causes. Recently, that passion and interest were recognized, when Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan selected her to serve on the Maryland Youth Advisory Council (MYAC). On Sept. 11, 2015, Parker joined 54 other members chosen to serve on the Council, only a select 16 of whom were appointed by the governor.

�This is a great honor, and I�m really looking forward to getting involved with the issues that are important to Maryland�s youth,� said Parker. �I�m particularly concerned about how the justice system is treating our minority youth, and I believe that my involvement with the Council will put me in a position to make a difference and possibly invoke change at the legislative level.�
