Students' union

Student movements have been part of revolutionary changes throughout history. This year another student movement took place which will be a part of the revolution. This revolution began on the second of November, which was an action day for all students in Canada, in a campaign to protest the rising of tuition fees called Fight the fees. Eight thousand students gathered around the country in major cities, in important political spaces to raise awareness about the high-rising tuition fees. A…

#FindWhatMovesYou is the motto that Mr. Christian Obando, Coordinator of Sport Clubs, within Campus Rec for Florida State abides by as he interacts with his diverse student body. The first day that I shadowed Mr. Obando, he had a very relaxed, confident, and positive demeanor that quickly made me realize the leadership persona that his peers seen in him. He was very interactive with me as we talked about his role in Campus Rec. Christian walked me through a day in the life of a Coordinator for…

envision THC was as action based organization, fully engages with the campus community. When I was invited to join the project, I proposed a framework that was heavily informed by Walter Mignolo’s “Colonial Matrix of Power.” THC’s aim was to create a student coalition integrated by organizations within and outside the university in an attempt to subvert oppression in the five wide domains of human experience (economic, political, environmental, epistemic/subjective, and civic). For me, the…

Should I be fortunate enough to be elected President of the Student Government Association of Frederick High, responsibilities as President will be second to none. Section 1, Article 7 of the FHS Constitution states that the President shall retain a status of an ex-offico member of all committees within our Government. This is where I'll work to deliver to the student of FHS more fun activities such as pep rallies and dances. Obviously, a pep rally every week or even every month is quite an…

The Indiana Association of Student Council, or IASC, is more than a statewide program for all the student councils within Indiana. IASC upholds the pillars of Inspiration, Action, Service, and Character, transforming ordinary students into remarkable leaders through the amazing conventions and camps they hold annually. I, Phillip Phan, am fortunate to be elected as a Northeast District Representative for the IASC Executive Committee. Being a part this committee has been life-changing thus far,…

While at UTC, I learned a lot about myself and how to conduct myself in a business manner. I joined a lot of student lead organizations and was able to make a good name for myself on campus. Not to mention, I co-founded an organization with one of my best friends. Establishing an organization called Unique Perception (U.P.) solely to empower women was the best creation…

willing students. Part II outlines the first draft of the plan and includes explicit procedures for the continuation of the research program, which will run for the most part, independent of interference from the Kent Administration and Faculty. Consequently student research will be autonomous and teacher involvement in research will be minimal. Part III addresses the current obstacles and arguments against such a program, such as the Global Online Academy, teacher workload, and consistent…

As I walked down the hallway of the Memorial Union, I search for the staircase that will bring me to my haven for the next hour and a half. After I expressed worry to my friend that I would have nowhere to go during my long class breaks, she told me that Sparky’s Den is where she goes to hang out between classes. As I descended down the gray staircase, I pictured what the room would look like; with a name like Sparky’s Den, I saw a crowded room with dark brown wooden paneling on the walls, dim…

In reviewing the Greenfield Union School District LCAP there were clear needs and metrics analyzed that were used to set goals to support the improvement of student success and safety.

1. I chose to attend Union college because it is a small liberal arts college with engineering. In high school I enjoyed the small community, where everyone gets to know a little about everybody. This not only gave me a reassuring sense of community, but also gave me a sense of importance because in a small community everyone has to make a difference. I also wanted to go to a small engineering school. This way I would get professors who actually teach, and are not too focused on their research.…
