Presidential Candidates


candidate
Tuyen Nguyen - Students' Party

Hello Gauchos!


My name is Tuyen Nguyen and I would be honored to be your '07-'08 AS President! A Vote for me is a vote for more experience, more dedication, and more good times!


I have been actively involved in Associated Students, serving as Off-campus Legislative Council Representative in '05-'06 and have worked with Isla Vista Tenants' Union, Isla Vista Community Relations Committee, Student Lobby, Student Commission on Racial Equality, and other AS entities. I rallied for tenants' rights, informed students about IVFP, and fought to keep education affordable and accessible. For the past year, I have developed a network of Student Initiated Outreach Programs with various campus organizations while serving as the Internal Vice President of the Vietnamese Students Association to create more cultural diversity and awareness. Through working with these various organizations, I have gained great knowledge about Associated Students and UCSB and have forged relationships with administrators and campus organizations to effectively advocate in the interests of students.


My commitment and leadership within both AS and other campus organizations will provide a catalyst to create better relationships and communication with student government and students! I am committed to serving ALL students and believe in the power of students. Thus, I will continue work to keep Associated Students and Administrators accountable to the needs of ALL students! Vote for experience, dedication and more good times! Vote Tuyen Nguyen for President and vote Students' Party!


candidate
Darren Reid Frawley - Freedom Federation

One problem is that a majority of our student body seems detached from Associated Students; we A.S. need to represent the greater good of the entire student body. As president, I want to ensure that the decisions of A.S. more accurately reflect the ideas of the student body and that these decisions affect positive changes within our campus community. An IDEAL A.S. PRESIDENT needs to be a strong leader; throughout my life's journey, I have demonstrated solid leadership in an array of arenas including academics, athletics, the professional working environment. As a fellow Gaucho, I'm an active student leader, and have recently taken leadership roles within both AS Recycling Program and the Disabled Students Program here on campus while interning for the NCAA NATIONAL CHAMPIONS MENS SOCCER TEAM.

AS PRESIDENT I WILL WORK TO:
  1. expand our WIRELESS INTERNET coverage
  2. seek adequate textbook prices
  3. extend our SUSTAINABILITY programs
  4. fight tooth and nail for the rights of IV's tenants.

VOTE for FRAWLEY is a vote for the betterment of each and every Gaucho.

I Darren Frawley, can offer UCSB cheaper insurance than Geico, more progressive insurance than Progressive, wider coverage than All State. I can offer UCSB insurance in me, that I will go above and beyond the call of duty to represent the entire UCSB student body. That is why I'm not part of an elitist political party.


From 1 student seeking leadership to another...vote for me AS President <3 D
FRAWLEY 4 FREEDOM

candidate
Stephanie Brower - Open People's Party (O.P.P.)

Hey UCSB! My name is Stephanie Brower and I am ready to be your next A.S. President.


Having served as President of the Residence Halls Association this year, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of the University structure and how it really functions. I will use the strong relationships I've already established with the UCSB administration to the benefit of all students. My goal, as an established leader of this school, is to take my organizational skills and experience and use them to influence the issues that affect the students at UCSB.


I believe that the purpose of A.S. is to enhance the quality of life for all UCSB students before they graduate. I believe strongly in the importance of open communication and the transparent functioning of A.S. so that students have the opportunity to get real representation. My sole intent is to combine my leadership skills with my knowledge of A.S. to bring this to fruition.


Our university needs a dedicated, fiscally responsible president who is willing to stand up and defend student welfare. I have a passion for UCSB and want to see all the students who attend our school well served. When you vote, please consider who you think will be the strongest, most successful leader for this campus and for all of the students.


My name is Stephanie Brower, and Welcome to The Party.
