College Council Presidency

In the spirit of leading the college community towards sustainability, I have announced my candidacy for College Council president. Along with my running mate, Kim Dacres, I promise to strengthen the support for student leaders on campus, work to make our campus greener and involve the student body in that process. In addition we are going to work to support club sports and re-open the discussion of multi-culturalism on campus.

There is a need for leaders who are environmentalists. We cannot limit ourselves to environmental groups when the work that needs to be done is everywhere. I encourage all of you to run for positions, apply for committees and take part in groups that are not directly involved because there is a difference to be made. There is a need for role models of progressive and meaningful action. There must be a visible face to our common goals. I don't claim to be the best face or the most qualified leader, but I am willing to put myself out there. As I think I've consistantly shown, I'm the one who will put out that energy when its needed most, and that's what I plan on doing as we continue into the future.
