Vice President part 1

Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrases “student government” and “student council”.

Vice President part 1

The Johns Hopkins News-Letter · October 2, 2003

Michael Scavelli

Yes, yes, this is my candidate statement. I'm Mike Scavelli and I am running for Vice President of the Class of 2007. If given the privilege to serve as your Vice President, it is my promise that I will do so to the very best of my ability. You won't get any dumb promises from me. I won't tell you that "I will get back to you." Bottom line: no BS. If you have an idea for a class activity, you let me know, and I will do everything short hula-hooping, butt naked on the upper quad, with a tube sock covering my unmentionables to get it done. I firmly believe that it would be my responsibility as your Vice President to act on your behalf weather it be in Student Council Meetings or in planning our own class activities. I will share with you one idea that I am already developing. The activity would be a Woodstock-like music festival on campus. This would feature both professional and student bands, as well as everything else that Woodstock had to offer (without the excessive prices). In addition to ideas, I would bring a wealth of experience to the Student Council. My four years of high school student council certainly left me with a great number of skills that would make me the best person for the job. So my friends, rock the vote, rock it hard, and rock it for me!

After only one month at Hopkins, I think it is clear that there is a lack of communication between the administration and students. As vice president of the class of 2007 I would make it my mission to bridge this gap. One issue among students is food and dining, particularly quality and availability of food. Currently, 8 p.m. is the latest any dining hall remains open, which does not accommodate the students for whom the dining halls exist. Also, I find the hours of the Student Health and Wellness Center unreasonable. While it is a great resource for students, the center closes at 5 p.m. weekdays and is closed all weekend after 12 p.m. Saturday, leaving students stranded all weekend. As vice president I plan on communicating to the administration the inconvenience of the hours of services on campus for students. Also as vice president, or social head of the class, I plan on organizing class-wide events, for example a freshman formal, which could be held at the Baltimore Museum of Art. I believe this combination of class events and resources improvements are what the class of 2007 needs to kick off a great four years at Hopkins.

Rose Zulliger

Looking for a good time? Dedicated, outgoing female seeking position of class vice president in order to make amazing events for the freshmen class, help to make our year fun with great concerts and ideally have a long term relationship with the Student Government of Johns Hopkins. My name is Rose Zulliger and I want to give our class every opportunity to have fun throughout our year. I was Student Government President of my high school, so I know the work that comes with holding an office and look forward to the job. I will plan for a dance-a-thon as a fun twist on club night with proceeds to go to charity, have spirit days for our class, and listen to the ideas of everyone so that we can have fun social events that YOU want to go to. I want to hear everyone's ideas and look forward to serving you. Get cozy with Rosie and VOTE Rose Zulliger on Oct. 9!
