Internal Vice President
Picture a boat...a big boat. A Santa Barbarian galleon with the letters "A.S." spattered on the hull in faded paint. The boat has seen better days...in the past, it was full of treasure, enough to dole out to every group that wanted a piece. Now the crew scrapes the bottom of every barrel. The hull has a hole in it, and the crew is pulling in different directions and bickering about how to fix it. One thing is certain; the boat is not going to survive another outing on the high seas, for the county whirlpools, landlord reefs, and tuition hike gales will surely rip it to shreds. If the only the crew would sit down, work out their differences, and combine their efforts to fix the hole, the ship could be restored to its former glory. My name is Adam Graff, and this is my vision.
I want to get all of the factions of A.S. working on the same page. Over my two years of council experience, I have come across many situations where groups aimed to accomplish the same feat, but didn't collaborate and subsequently failed. I want to restore the trust between A.S, the students, and the nexus, because without it, we lose our authority to speak as the official student voice. I will hold our appointment committee accountable, so that our vacancies are summarily filled. Our image has been tarnished. I ask you, the students, for the opportunity to polish it back to a shine.
