Spring Break
ASI presidential candidate statement
Roberto Torres, Push for Progress
Issue date: 4/22/09 Section: ASI Election
My platform is really to Push for Progress. I have seen that Associated Students, Inc., does some amazing things. The only problem is that students don't know about ASI, and ASI hasn't really done a lot of outreach to you, the students. This is why I want to make ASI better and these are a few ways how:
- I will create a staff position that focuses on increasing communication between ASI and campus clubs, organizations and the Greek system.
- I will work with the ASI vice president of academic affairs to advocate improving academic advising and increasing class availability.
- I will work toward improving the Student Life and Services Program to better serve you and your needs.
These are some of my goals for next year, and I know that they are achievable. I have served in ASI as a nonvoting member for the past two years, first as secretary of state affairs and currently as executive vice president/chair of the board. I have worked with the administration in the past. That means they know who I am and I know how to work with them to get things done.
Progress wants to cultivate campus pride, expand involvement and strengthen your voice. All this is possible with Team Progress! Together, we are committed to working with others to ensure that students are heard. We want to connect with students through surveys, open forums, ASI Town Hall meetings and any other method possible. We believe doing this is the first step toward expanding involvement and eventually cultivating pride, because once you feel heard and listened to, you and other students are more eager to get involved and feel proud, like me, to be a Hornet. Go Hornets, and push for Progress!
