It's beginning to look a lot like progress...

Hello everyone!

The year has hardly begun and we're already swimming with things to do!

Tonight are the At Large senator interviews. We have 18 applicants interviewing for 12 spots! It should be a competitive and interesting night!

With the At Large senator interviews, the Board of Directors had to meet to decide how the interviews should be run. The Board of Directors (BOD) consists of one representative from each college as well as the president and vice president. The BOD representatives are chosen from the senators within the specific colleges during a college caucus. The representatives bring experience and thoughtful choices that represent the students in their colleges.

Next week, March 30, is the student federation meeting in Aberdeen. We'll connect with other student governments from around the state and speak with them about various issues facing all of our colleges. We'll also be voting on some positions for the Federation for the upcoming year.

The next day, March 31-April1, will be the Board of Regents (BOR) meeting in Aberdeen. We'll attend this meeting and voice our concerns for the students of SDSU.

Once we return on Thursday, it's Easter Break! We're all excited for another break from school and our busy schedules to be with family and friends.

A New Beginning

Hello Everyone!

Brett and I are SO excited about the election results. We're glad that the race was so close and that everyone got out and put forth their votes. It's so important to speak your mind and let your voice be heard, especially when the vote you're making depends on the future of your university. We're so excited to start working with the newly elected senators. At-large applications are still out and those interviews won't happen until March 22, but we're excited to begin our work with the already elected senators. Through the help of senate, administration, board of regents and the students of SDSU, we know that great things can happen on our campus.

We've decided that we want this year to be the best we can make it. We want to inspire and make a difference on campus. We want to get students involved and help them become aware of the issues that are going on on campus. We want students to understand the policies and procedures that the administration, board of regents and the students' association put forth that impact every lives of students.

Brett and I are starting this blog to document our year of leadership. We're documenting it for our own sakes, but also for the students, faculty and administration to see as well. We want open communication and close connections to be made this year. Like every leader, we want to inspire and change the world. We want to leave our mark and make positive changes that will change the future of our university. We want to be the change you wish to see- and we want to document that change along the way.
