TO THE EDITOR:
In the midst of this absurd election season, let’s not forget that choosing our next student body president is an important task.
UNC’s student body president plays an important role as a student advocate in making major decisions with the Board of Trustees. They are involved in discussions on tuition, fees, enrollment and major construction projects on campus. We need a knowledgeable representative who can clearly voice a student perspective on University decisions that impact our experience.
Ian Lee is the best candidate to fulfill this important role. He has the leadership skills and the experience necessary to represent student interests. He has remained faithful to his position as our student body secretary, a role that has given him the opportunity to advocate for students while learning the intricacies of administrative policy. He has presented us with a plan for next year that will add to our daily experience through services like meal plan flexibility and expanded student parking options. His stance on academic policy, tuition and fees is innovative but realistic, and demonstrates that he understands the challenges facing our University but will not be intimidated out of advocating for what is best for present and future Tar Heels.
So, make your voice heard. Vote for the candidate that is student focused and results driven. Vote for Ian Lee today.
