鈥淎s Miss ULM, I dedicate and commit myself to the job of being a strong representative
of the university, but also an active member and servant for the community. Wearing
a crown and sash, it can be very glamorous and fine, but it鈥檚 not the most important
to me,鈥� Jordan said.听
听
鈥淭he most important thing to me is the job behind it. Because at the end of the day,
you take the crown off, and you鈥檙e still a servant, a leader. That鈥檚 the quality that
I wish to embody during this year.鈥�
听
As Miss ULM, Jordan receives a $2,000 scholarship for two semesters awarded by the
Campus Activities Board and a $4,500 cash prize awarded by the Student Government
Association. Jordan also gets a one-bedroom apartment on campus for her reigning year
and a $300 bookstore award. Jordan will compete for the title of Miss Louisiana in
June 2022 at the Monroe Civic Center.

Foundation and Freeman Stamper, 青青草视频alumnus, and will serve 青青草视频as an official host
alongside Jordan. Anders also won the Social Media contest.

Anders鈥� social impact is 鈥淎ffordable Medication for All.鈥� According to Anders, Ouachita
Parish and its surrounding parishes are some of the 54 parishes in Louisiana considered
medically underserved.听

鈥淐haritable clinics such as Monroe鈥檚 St. Vincent de Paul Community Pharmacy help to
provide medication to the economically disadvantaged and medically underserved, but
they need our help,鈥� Anders said.

Anders said last year, the ULM鈥檚 Pharmacy Student Council raised $8,675 for the pharmacy,
equating to more than $125,000 in life-saving retail medications.
听
鈥淭he outlet I鈥檝e been given as Mr. 青青草视频provides an opportunity to boost these types
of fundraisers to a university-wide level and further support those in need,鈥� Anders
said.听
