Jacobson and Cook will help maximize group activity
As a member of the Student Senate this year, I know how much student government desperately needs new ideas. ASUO Executive candidates Bret Jacobson and Matt Cook have consistently put forth original ideas to the problems that other candidates have merely highlighted.
Bret and Matt are committed to making sure the executive actively supports student groups, especially when it comes to planning and paying for events. Not only will they hold student groups financially accountable, they will also help groups be responsible with student funds. This means assisting with wise money management, while effectively maximizing the group’s activity.
One of Bret and Matt’s innovative solutions is to create a new position in the ASUO, that of “Projects Coordinator,” to guide students as they plan and execute their events, and assist with fundraising. The coordinator would know how money can be spent, the best ways to spend it, and the services available throughout campus.
Past presidents strived to make the ASUO more recognizable to students. The coordinator position would be the next step; an actual person inside the ASUO students could recognize for help. Bret and Matt want to solve that problem and others. The ASUO needs their creative solutions.
Last year, I ran on a platform of student fee accountability. Bret and Matt want to help student groups use their fees correctly, while getting the maximum bang for their buck. I recommend you vote Bret Jacobson and Matt Cook for ASUO Executive.
