  1. Why did you want to join the EWUAA Board? It was my time!\u00a0 Since I graduated in 1988, I have always been an Eagle faithful, and I just had this need to get more involved and promote Eastern. \u00a0 Eastern is a great school with a wide variety of educational opportunities available for the taking \u2013 whether you live on campus or commute.\u00a0 I am honored to help someone make the decision to attend Eastern or to help guide a grad in their first foray into their career. <\/span><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. How did Eastern prepare you for the work you do now? I can say I literally use my broadcast journalism degree everyday on my job.\u00a0 Writing, marketing, capturing images \u2013 all necessary for taking a position on legislation, promoting an industry, and drafting digital and social media posts.\u00a0 My degree has served me well in my career of public affairs.\u00a0 I can still hear Mr. Boles telling me how to tell a story.<\/span><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Rosa’s cheesy bread or Eagle Punch? Gotta go with the Rosa\u2019s cheesy bread.\u00a0 Being honest \u2013 it would be Zip\u2019s tartar sauce <\/span><\/strong><\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. What was your favorite part of your time at Eastern? <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>I came to Eastern to become a high school English teacher but somehow, I wandered out to the Radio Television Department where I found my voice – literally. The RTV department was a family \u2013 we just had the best time on various productions (radio, tv coverage of sports, and other productions), in the classroom and at Goofy\u2019s.<\/li>\n
  5. What is your favorite thing about Eastern today? <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>Have to say football season \u2013 I have family members that are University of Montana Grizz fans and Montana State Bobcat fans! The rivalry is real! Go Eags!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","image":{"ID":1931,"id":1931,"title":"Rhonda Stevenson Photo","filename":"Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-scaled.jpg","filesize":422250,"url":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-scaled.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/about\/board-of-directors\/ewuaa-board-member-highlight-stevenson\/rhonda-stevenson-photo-2\/","alt":"","author":"749","description":"","caption":"","name":"rhonda-stevenson-photo-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1929,"date":"2021-07-01 23:00:47","modified":"2021-07-01 23:00:47","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1560,"height":2560,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-183x300.jpg","medium-width":183,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-768x1261.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":1261,"large":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-624x1024.jpg","large-width":624,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-936x1536.jpg","1536x1536-width":936,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-1248x2048.jpg","2048x2048-width":1248,"2048x2048-height":2048,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-scaled.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":183,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":300,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-scaled.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":244,"gform-image-choice-md-height":400,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/07\/Rhonda-Stevenson-Photo-1-scaled.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":366,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":600}},"youtube_video_id":"","video_orientation":"horizontal","image_alt":"","secondary_image":"Line-texture-Red.svg","background_vertical_alignment":"center","background_horizontal_alignment":"center","background_crop":"chevron","component_options_toggle":false,"component_options":{"disable_component":false,"nickname":"","identifier":"","navigable":false}}],"page_hide_sidebar":false,"secondary_nav_menu_type":"parent"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1929","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/749"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1929"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1929\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2590,"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1929\/revisions\/2590"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/141"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ewu.edu\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1929"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
