| 1. What are your goals if elected Student Government Association
vice president? |
One of my major goals is to push for a more accurate representation
of students in SGA so that the decisions made in the House are done in
the best interest of the entire student body. For this to happen, students
from every organization must be encouraged to get involved in student government.
I also have a goal of increasing communications on campus so that the entire
school community is aware of the issues that are being debated and discussed
in the House. |
| 2. What are your qualifications to serve as Student Government
Association vice president? |
I have been in leadership roles for the last six years in school,
church, sports and in the community. I have served on the House here at
TCU for one year now, and I have seen what does and does not work. I currently
hold an executive office in my fraternity and have had hands-on experience
in making good decisions that affect the larger group. I believe that I
bring a vision for the future of TCU that will involve a wider participation
of the whole student body, and I am ready to help lead into the new millennium. |
| 3. What is the No. 1 issue you think the House should take up
next year, and what is your suggestion for what the House should do? |
I feel that by going into the new year with an open mind to the concerns
of the student body, I will be more prepared to deal with specific issues
that the students body, as a whole, wants to see changed. |
| 4. What is the one unique thing you have done as a student at
TCU that sets you apart from other students? |
If I had to choose one thing, it would be the Christian Fellowship
group that I started in my fraternity on Tuesday nights last spring. It
is open to both guys and girls who wish to come together for a time of
prayer and devotional. This fall, we've added something new by combining
the idea of service to the Fort Worth community as a means of showing that
we are thankful for all that we have and that we are ready to give back
to those who are less fortunate. |
| 5. What do you see as the job/role of SGA? |
To serve as the activator of students' ideas and concerns that will
make TCU a better place to be. |
| 6. How do you define your leadership style? |
Very open and sensitive to the concerns of everybody. I also like
to believe that I lead by example, and that I am committed to acting in
the best interest of others in the community. |
| 7. With the passage of the referendum and the restructuring of
House, how will the role of vice president be affected, and what do you
plan to do to ease the transition? |
I honestly believe the actual restructuring of House through the
new referendum that was passed is basically irrelevant as long as the concerns
of the students are being met first. The actual responsibilities of the
vice president may shift slightly, but the focus on serving the student
body must stay the same. |
