| 1. What are your goals if elected Student Government Association
secretary? |
My first goal is to get more involved within the school and SGA.
I also plan to get the student body to become more aware of the groups
and the things that are happening on campus. I think we need to become
more of a diverse campus. We have so many people with different backgrounds
and with what we learn from them, we have accept them for who they are.
My final goal is to try to get the administration to interact with more
of the student body. |
| 2. What are your qualifications to serve as SGA secretary? |
As a senior in high school, I was the student body vice president.
I worked closely with the administration, and with the help of the other
executive board members, we had the best school spirit and involvement
ever. As a freshman at TCU, I was the representative for Clark Hall, which
allowed me to help my constituents see changes they wanted done around
our dorm. I also served on the Student Concerns and Academic Affairs committees.
This year I helped out with Family Weekend. |
| 3. What is the No. 1 issue you think House should address next
year, and what is your suggestion for what House should do? |
By visiting friends at their universities, I have been able to see
how little school spirit we have here. Many people say we don't have school
spirit because we don't have anything to celebrate about - none of our
teams do very well. The way I think we could fix this is by having tailgate
parties for the whole student body before games and to also have pep rallies
like we have for Homecoming and Howdy Week. |
| 4. What is the one unique thing you have done as a TCU student
that sets you apart from other students? |
Only having been a student at TCU for one year, I have not had the
opportunity to do anything unique on the TCU campus. However, my experiences
allowed me to go back to my hometown to preach a sermon at my home church
about our perceptions and how we treat the people we interact with. I also
was giving the message to myself because I realized I had fallen into the
trap of judging people. Now I try to practice what I preach, something
that many people today don't know how to do. |
| 5. Do you feel low attendance at House meetings or delegates not
staying through a complete meeting is a problem? If so, what would you
do about it? |
It is a problem because we are unable to pass important bills we
need to get to the administration, so that things can change for the better.
One thing that can be done is to ask the delegates running for positions
if House meetings interfere with their schedule. If so, they should not
go for the position but still be a part of House. This will allow voting
positions to be filled by those delegates who are able to stay for the
entire House meeting. |
