<h3>Vaasavi</h3>
|
|
In her time at Carnegie Mellon, Vaasavi has always wanted to make
|
|
student's lives better. After working with administration on the
|
|
University Strategic Plan, she realized that students were missing a
|
|
vital part of their Carnegie Mellon Experience: the infrastructure to
|
|
be innovators and leaders outside of the classroom. Since then, she
|
|
has worked to create environments encouraging students to think of
|
|
ways to change campus for the better. In her work as CA of E Tower,
|
|
she created a thinly-veiled incentive structure for students to engage
|
|
with the outside community. She wants to bring this to the overall CMU
|
|
community to make permanent improvements to campus.

<h3>Aaron</h3>
|
|
When Aaron first came to Carnegie Mellon, he took up as many
|
|
opportunities to try new things and engage with the campus as
|
|
possible. He felt that he grew and learned far more outside the
|
|
classroom. Not everyone takes that same path. More than anything else,
|
|
students are forced to prioritize at Carnegie Mellon, and that is the
|
|
cause of a lot of stress. But students should not have to make that
|
|
choice. Engaging and exploration with the campus outside the classroom
|
|
should be an integral part of the Carnegie Mellon experience.

<h3>Fiscal Transparency</h3>
|
|
As students, we deserve to know where our tuition is going, how our
|
|
administrators are getting paid and about the university's spending.
|
|
Aaron and Vaasavi have read CMU's tax forms, so you don't have to.
|
|
Additionally, we are constantly asked for donations, yet it's not
|
|
always clear where that money is used. Look out for infographics on
|
|
our Facebook page! #financefridays

|
<h3>The Model for Social Change</h3>
|
|
If we're going to change the world, we might as well get started. We
|
|
call it the President's Initiative--the common thread of the CMU
|
|
experience that we have the power to change. Vaasavi and Aaron
|
|
propose to mobilize club presidents around a common issue, and reward
|
|
the clubs and organizations that provide innovative cultural
|
|
solutions on our campus.
|
|

|
|
<h3>Student Government Transparency</h3>
|
|
It shouldn't be normal that no one knows what Student Government
|
|
Executives do. The Student Body President should make an effort to be
|
|
present and available to all students, and regularly inform the
|
|
student body on what they're up to. Vaasavi and Aaron propose making
|
|
all student organization transactions public, a weekly column in the
|
|
Tartan, and going beyond the constitutionally required SBP office
|
|
hours in highly trafficked areas of campus, so there are no barriers
|
|
to being informed.

<h3>Olivia Roy - Chief of Staff</h3>
|
|
|
|
I've known Aaron since we were freshmen in E-Tower. We and our
|
|
friends would sit on the floor of his room and talk about how we had
|
|
grown since high school. As introspective as those
|
|
conversations are, I don't want to just talk anymore, I want to do
|
|
something. Vaasavi has a compelling call to action, and the
|
|
leadership qualities that we need in a Student Body President. I'm
|
|
proud to support Vaas and Aaron because they don't just want to talk
|
|
about how CMU has changed us, but how we can change CMU.

<h3>Zach Newman - Recruitment</h3>
|
|
I support Vaasavi because from our first meeting, I knew how much
|
|
passion she has for this school and how much she is able to make
|
|
positive change. After conversations with her about deep rooted
|
|
issues we face as students, I realized the importance to have a leader
|
|
who understands so many different cultures within the student body to
|
|
make our four years at Carnegie Mellon more meaningful, impactful,
|
|
and positive. Despite her humility, I fully believe Vaasavi fits that
|
|
role and I am proud to be a part of her campaign.

<h3>Srishti Jain - Public Relations</h3>
|
|
|
|
I'm tired of merely talking about social change, and am ready for
|
|
students at Carnegie Mellon to actually make change. I believe Vaasavi
|
|
and Aaron are the best candidates to facilitate these changes. With
|
|
their experience, ambition, and thoughtfulness, I know they have the
|
|
ability to improve the lives of the CMU student body. After witnessing
|
|
Vaasavi and Aaron in Student Senate for the past few years, I can
|
|
confidently say Vaasavi and Aaron will be meaningful and transparent
|
|
with their initiatives.

<h3>Bettina Chou - Designer</h3>
|
|
The CMU design curriculum has instilled upon me a habit of looking at
|
|
problems as systems on various scales and looking for entry points to
|
|
resolve certain problem spaces. So, hearing Vaasavi's approach, I was
|
|
pleasantly surprised to learn the methods in econ/finance tackled
|
|
issues in a similar, yet more empirical way. Combined with her
|
|
intrinsic compassion and empathy, I am confident in her
|
|
solution-oriented mindset. I support her and Aaron because I believe
|
|
they will create effective solutions with a purpose as opposed to
|
|
temporary band-aid solutions.
