Vote for student voice: Dith for ASLC President

Lewis & Clark students are often a dissatisfied lot. “The Administration doesn’t listen to us,” we whine. Well buddies, guess what? ASLC’s job is to bridge the ravine (you see what I did there) between the Administration and the students, and elections for ASLC positions are this weekend! You want the Administration to listen to you? Then vote for the student candidates who will best represent your voice.

This is my official endorsement of Dith Pamp for ASLC president. (The unofficial endorsement took the form of a sticky note on my dorm room door.) Here’s the lowdown on why I believe Dith is the strongest candidate for the ASLC presidency.

• Dith has served on the ASLC Cabinet for the past year, helping to create the Senate as our student government went through major restructuring
• Dith has worked for better student group budgeting for three years, and has served as Treasurer for the past year, advocating for financial transparency from the College
• Dith has worked as an RA for three years, serving as a community builder, resource, and liaison between students and Campus Living since she was hired as a freshman
• Dith has been present and involved in campus life for the past three years, giving her a definite edge over her opponents who have been abroad
• Dith has functioned as the student voice on controversial issues such as the new smoking policy, transferable print balances, and the LC work study program
• Dith is the only candidate who has attended a Senate meeting… and she has attended all 25 of them!

Also, you should vote for Dith because I drew a cute picture of her.

ASLC election ballots go out via email on Friday at noon and are due by Monday at noon. Please vote! For your voice to be heard, you gotta speak up.
