For the 16 students selected to serve as Lancers at UAH for the 2016-2017 academic year, the mandate is twofold. The first is to serve as the university’s official ambassadors at formal functions throughout the fall and spring, among them Convocation, Peace on Earth, Commencement, and the Board of Trustees Meeting. The second is to burnish the Lancers’ 43-year reputation as one of the most prestigious organizations on campus.
