ASMSUB Election
Elections Dates and Times
Tuesday, April 2, 2024
Polls open: April 2 at 8am
Polls close: April 2 at 5pm
Prioritizing senator diversity between all current (four) colleges of the main university campus should be emphasized. This is recommended to ensure the voices of constituents from the entire campus are represented. In addition to representation, this will also help prevent bias for (or against) any specific college during any given academic year.

My goal as President is to make ASMSUB more present in the sense that students come to us with concerns and questions about campus. That is the purpose of student government: to act as representatives of the student body, speaking for those who may not be heard. I also want to make our office space open more often so people can just hang out.
