Incoming college freshman Annie Hilderbrand of Yucca Valley has been appointed by Copper Mountain Community College District Superintendent and President Dr. Daren Otten as the 2020-2021 Student Representative to the CMC Foundation Board of Directors. The board is fiscally and legally responsible for the health and well-being of over seven million dollars in assets, including the F. Roy Greenleaf Scholarship Fund. Hilderbrand will serve as the voice of students to the Foundation, providing guidance on their current needs, the campus climate, and how best to utilize donor dollars to achieve student success. Hilderbrand will graduate from Yucca Valley High School in June with over a 4.0 GPA and she will be sworn in later this month as a full voting board member. Hilderbrand grew up in the desert and plans on studying environmental science at CMC.
