Student votes should go to Petkun, Ravassipour
I am writing to give my highest endorsement to Adam Petkun and Mena Ravassipour for ASUO Executive. Being the ASUO president and vice president requires a wide variety of skills and platform issues that will speak directly to the student body as a whole, as well as to underrepresented students on campus.
Student parents, students of color, graduate students, members of the greek system, low-income and non-traditional students would all benefit from having Adam and Mena in office. Their plans and experience would create concrete changes to make education more affordable, to ensure that students’ rights aren’t being violated on campus and in the surrounding community and to create respect for student interests in the Oregon Legislature.
I have carefully considered the qualifications of the other candidates for the Executive office and, while they all would serve well in different positions in student government, not one individual or ticket has the combined experience or good intentions that Adam and Mena have. I urge you to vote for Adam and Mena.
