Alumna elected to Ho-Chunk legislative post

UW-Green Bay alumna Heather Cloud, ’10, recently was elected to the Legislature of the Ho-Chunk Nation. She was sworn in Wednesday (Nov. 9) at the Ho-Chunk Nation Executive Office Building in Black River Falls after winning a runoff election in October against Myrna Thompson of Wisconsin Raids. “My interests are the welfare of our Nation, our sovereignty and our future generations,” said Cloud, who earned her degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a business emphasis. “We need to remember what our elders wanted for us and that we can honor the amazing legacy they left in our hands.”
