This means students need to be heard in the legislature and in campus elections. She said she continues her work on the Get Out the Vote program which helped to sway a city election last year. A major feat for students on campus, White said this just proves that students have the clout to affect any decisions made by the legislature. White said she wants to train a student lobbyist for next year. Having a student in this position guarantees that legislators will focus on real student concerns.
Students know what they want.
White said more student involvement will ensure that their concerns are a priority when the administration makes its decisions. The relationship between students and the administration always needs improvement, she said. As ASUM president, White said she will make sure students are put first in administrative decisions. Attending all the administrative meetings and getting more student input keeps the administration responsible to students. White is also the student representative on the Advisory Board for the Center for Environmental Citizenship and sits on the Police Citizen Advisory Board.
