Another elected alum brings total to five Phoenix in state Legislature

We told you here recently about the Nov. 4 reelection of UW-Green Bay alumni Frank Lasee ’86, R-Ledgeview (state Senate); and Scott Krug ’09, R-Rome (state Assembly). It turns out UW-Green Bay had another alumnus, Romaine R. Quinn ’14, newly elected to the Assembly that day, bringing the total number of Phoenix alumni serving in the state legislature to five. UW-Green Bay grads Dave Hansen ’71, D-Green Bay; and Rob Cowles ’75, R-Allouez, also serve in the state Senate. Hansen and Cowles are midway through their terms and were not up for election Nov. 4. You can read more about Quinn, who at just 24 years old is also the former mayor of Rice Lake, and a graduate of the Adult Degree Program, in this story from the Eau Claire Leader Telegram.
