It appears to me that there is a lack of
responsible people on this campus
who have any interest as to what
happens in the governmental office,
especially the Student Senate. I am.
however, interested in the challenge
that being on the Senate would
present. I think that if I were on the
Senate. I would try my best to enact
legislation that could improve this
campus.
I also believe there are many problems
on this campus that affect students,
problems only students can confront
or solve. The Senate could be a
powerful facility, one that could deal
with many of the problems students
face If elected. I will try my best to
create solutions to the long-term and
everyday problems all students must
deal with I will use the Senate as a
tool, to improve the campus commu
nity. making it better for students.
Elle T. Ernst
The University is undergoing a time
of change and uncertainty. As
University students we must not
compromise, but continue to further
our University environment. Students
need to get involved I know that my
position on the Student Senate alone
won't cause any sort of University
revolution, but I plan to use my voice
to make sure the students are heard
and seen as the most important reason
that the University of Oregon eaists.
