First-year elections kick off

Allison Armstrong
I think the class of 2010 is an amazing class and I would be honored to represent us in senate.   As a first-year, I am still learning all that this school has to offer, just as my classmates are.   I want to be able to help them with first year struggles and be able to voice any concerns or suggestions they might have.   So far, I love this school and want to work hard to keep it as good as it is, to not only maintain the endless activities and learning, but to also serve the greater Whitman Community not only by myself, but to involve the entire class of 2010 in changes that are made.   The coming year already sounds amazing (Flogging Molly, etc.) and I hope to be a part of the decisions in the coming year.

I led capture-the-flag in pink shorts and body paint.   I led my high school’s fondue club and cycling club.   I led Whitman’s first British Romantic Comedy Fondue Party.   I led my high schools’ Student-Faculty Senate this past year and was my classes’ sole representative for four years.   Through my leadership in the Senate, I worked tirelessly to build and strengthen relationships throughout my previous divided K-12 school.   From the smallest kindergarteners to the oldest seniors, I sought and worked towards a completely united K-12 community.   Thus I wish to further strengthen the community of Whitman, a college that I love, and will work tirelessly to improve as a senator of the Class of 2010.

I want to be on Senate because I want to make a difference on campus.   I feel that as a student, it is difficult to influence the goings on here.   I plan to put together a better communications network because most people blow off the student digests and don’t know what’s going on.   I want to have more all-campus and all-class events to get to know more people and feel like a larger part of this wonderful community.

I love people, Girls and Boys.   I feel as though I have a good sense of what the greater student body wants and needs.   For a school to function without a sense of unilateralism and to achieve the greater goal of community it seeks; students need to be allowed more influential positions within the school’s administration and governing.   I hope to establish at least one if not two students from each year to serve on the judicial system.   Students should hold other students accountable to the expectations of the school and can further offer prospective in the judicial process.   Further, I would like either senators, elected or appointed students to sit in on faculty and administrative meetings.   I would like to serve on the programming or financial committees and hope to bring a hot tub to campus as I have not been able to find one.

All I’m interested in is representing the views and ideas of my class, my (Jewett), and my section (2-West!!!), beyond that… what ideas are there?   Whitman rocks already.

Chuckie Harris
I want to meet people and serve the Whitman community, especially my class.   I’m open to new experiences and hope this will help me feel like a bigger part of the freshman class.

The role of a senator is to be a representative of the larger group’s ideas, concerns, and aspirations.   If given the opportunity to serve as a senator for the class for 2010 I would do just that: be a representative.   I want to know all of your thoughts, make sure they a
