The Associated Student Union won first prize for the LACCD Associated Student Organization/ Union Parliamentary Competition from the LACCD Leadership Institute Training contest recently held at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College.

Student governments in the Los Angeles Community Colleges District including Valley College, Pierce College, East Los Angeles College and Southwest College effectively represented their respective schools.

The contest was part of the parliamentary procedure and Title IX training. Many representative members of the ASU were attending the contest, such as Valley’s very own Melina Valle Herrera, who was in charge of answering the questions as Parliamentarian.

Valley College won first place, East Los Angeles College and Mission College received second place, and Harbor College was awarded third place out of 9 colleges.
