The role of student government is to facilitate a complementary relationship between the students and the institution. My goals are to help maximize the student experience and ensure the longevity and continued evolution of Evergreen’s identity and spirit by creating more activities and opportunities for students and working on the most pressing issues facing the student body. We have a responsibility to the community, both present and future, and it is our job to step up now more than ever.
