“The most important body is the student body. As the next AMS president, I can draw on my two and a half years of experience managing teams, pivoting from hardships and projects, and working with leaders and developing through critical times.”
“I think I am one of, if not the most, experienced candidate for this role. I have relationships with members of the Board of Governors currently, which I can leverage to my advantage to lobby for student issues ... without sacrificing my integrity.”
“[I’ll] fight for increased transparency in board practices because I’ve been there this whole entire year and … I understand why decisions were made that they made. [But] that’s something that all societies need to continue to review and look at.”
“I don’t think I have a particular weakness. I think I’m great. I think I will be the best student representative for next year. I’m the outsider. I intend on representing the UBC students. I’m proud to be the outsider. I intend to be great.”
Think you can dance for five hours straight? That's exactly what UBC Free the Children and Evolution EDC wants you to do to raise money for Free the Children — an international charity — and their clean water and sanitation programs.
“There’s always differing points of view … and because I’ve worked with a variety of people, I think that I have a pretty good ability and understanding on compromising and on working things out through discussion.”
“What's going to set me apart from the other candidates is my experience personally dealing with students from my work in Arts Academic Advising and my intention to focus this year on finishing other projects.”
“I am really interested maximizing student spaces. Not in the way I’ve heard thrown around with 24 hour study spaces. I want to improve student engagement be informed making it easier for them to look up information on running next year.”
“It’s very difficult to come up with something new ... it seems more beneficial to actually achieve those goals that Senate decided on three years ago. My platform is working with what the Senate has done three years before.”
“Coming from a background where I’ve just been involved as a residence advisor, UBC in exchange, as well as clubs on campus, I think that I bring a different perspective to the role. I think that I bring enough fresh perspective.”
I would love to work with the ad-hoc mental health committee because I am a huge mental health advocate and used Access & Diversity before. I’ve seen the state of mental health on campus and it’s improving, thanks to the work of our current senators.
“The mental health aspects are definitely stemming from my experiences this year, where we have a regular standard time table where we take 8 courses ... It motivated me to advocate not only for better mental health, but for the smaller departments.”
"I’m a good advocate. I think I know the campus well enough to be able to advocate for students and really, it fits exactly my vision and what I think we should prioritize for UBC, to introduce the idea of a united campus."
“For a lot of candidates, they want to talk about what they want to bring to the senate. But for me, a lot of my platform is also looking at how we can improve student senate caucus so that we can better hear student’s voices.”
