Daniel Teran and Nicholas Gilson were elected president and vice president, respectively. Sam Lichtenstein was elected class secretary while Brian Pascal was elected senator of Leadership Appointments. Daniel deLeon was chosen to be the senator of legislation and Stephanie Hsu was picked to be the senator of authorization. Justin White is this year's senator of finance.
"We're all pretty pleased. We're excited about making good stuff happen on campus," said Daniel Teran, president-elect. "I'm excited to be given this opportunity. I look forward to working with Dan along with the rest of Student Council throughout the coming year," said Nicholas Gilson, vice-president-elect. The two will be working on Hopkins Engaged, a program that seeks to increase dialogue about national politics and register voters at Hopkins.
"Hopkins has been traditionally viewed as politically apathetic, and we're trying to change that," Teran said. The two will also be working on the Blue Jay Book Exchange, an online database to buy and sell books directly between students, cutting out the middleman.
This year's freshman class president is expected to serve as the chief spokesperson of the class of 2011, direct all class activities, and serve the Student Life Committee. The freshman class vice president is expected to assist the president, represent the class in his or her absence, and also serve the Student Life Committee.
"I'm happy that the class had the confidence to elect me and I look forward to representing the class in the year ahead. I'm going to work with the president and v.p. and make sure my campaign platform is represented so that we can have the most effective representation for the freshman class," said Sam Lichtenstein, Class Secretary-elect.
The Student Council has seen consistent growth in people who want to get involved and has enjoyed a more positive image on campus.
