Dear editor and fellow students,

This week we will be making the very important decisions as to who will lead our student body.

The key race in this election is for executive vice president, of which the outcome could heavily influence the direction of our Student Senate.

As a former student senator who resigned in protest against unsustainable Senate policies that I believed have created a cycle of high turnover and low morale, I am excited by the prospect of positive change offered by candidate Frida Arellano.

Not only does Frida offer a refreshing change to student government, but she has proven herself to be a dedicated and key leader in the Fund EIU movement on campus.

This is the most important issue facing our campus, and Frida is the candidate who has best demonstrated the ability to represent our classmates during this fiscal crisis.

I strongly encourage all students to invest your vote in a proven leader. I urge you to support Frida Arellano for executive vice president.

Jonathan M. Williams, political science graduate student
