Freshman Legislative Senator - Student Council Candidate Statements

Freshman Legislative Senator - Student Council Candidate Statements

The Johns Hopkins News-Letter · October 7, 2004

My name is Scott Motejunas, and I am running as Freshman Legislative Senator. Before I go into politics, I would like to tell you a bit about myself. I am a Bostonian, intending to major in Economics. At my high-school, Milton Academy, I actively participated in student government for the majority of my time there. As Legislative Senator, I hope to deal with issues regarding the current student constitution, and I plan on ratifying and suggesting bylaws that would improve student government. Coincidentally, during my senior year in high-school, the student government association amended our constitution due to an ambiguous rule regarding re-elections for a position that was removed autocratically by the administration. Working together with students in hopes of preventing administration dominance is a central goal of mine. I have the dedication and experience to handle these situations, and I hope to use these tools to lead the freshman class. Thank you.

Where mah Bluejays at? I think the guy from Playfair left a negative impact on me. Anyhow, my name is Joshua Lerman, and I am excited and proud to be a member of JHU's finest: the class of 2008! Over the past few weeks, I have only gotten to know a few of you. I look forward to meeting as many as I can over the next four years. The reason I write is because I am running for a Student Congress position -- Legislative Senator. I want to be a member of our student council so I can help serve our fine class. In particular, I want to make sure things run smoothly and constitutionally around here...From what I understand, we have a very young constitution that still needs plenty of work! I won't bug you with requests to vote for me. But I do have one request--Just remember college is awesome, so have fun! Take Care! --Lerman for Legislator ( a little alliteration never hurt anyone)
