junior, corporate communications major
1. What are your goals for the Student Association?
I would like to improve campus transportation. I feel that there should be more buses that reach the shopping areas on Sycamore Road. Another goal of mine is to increase the number of voters in student elections. A campus of this size should not have such a lack in student involvement.
2. What qualifications do you have to represent the student body of NIU?
I have been attending NIU for three years, and from my time on campus, I have been able to watch this campus grow. I also have been able to see things happen on campus that I feel can be better. I have worked Freshman Orientation for the past two years. I have assisted the C.H.A.N.C.E. Program with the recruitment of incoming students. The most important qualification that I have is that I have a strong opinion.
3. What in particular can you offer the student body in this position?
I can promise the student body that their voices will be heard. I will take the ideas and concerns of any student willing to give them, and make sure they are brought to attention.
