• Question 1:How would you make sure your constituents know who you are and how they can contact you?
  Today, information is easily obtained through the web. If the students are aware of what USG is and where to find them on the web, the information of who is representing them and what they are doing will be easily accessible. Updating the USG website should and will be a top priority.
• Question 2:How do you respond to accusations that joining USG senate is all about resume padding?
  I would contend that almost all senators do not use their position in the USG as a resume builder. Those who accuse the members of the senate of padding their resumes should try attending meetings and see the good work being done.
• Question 3:How would you like to see USG improve?
  I think that if the students are asked to pay more in thier activity fee, the money should be spent diligently. Wasteful spending is one of the biggest issues in the USG. With times being rough, we need senators who consider every dime they are approving and where/to whom that money is going.
