Hello Fellow Hornets! My name is Hisham Hussain and I am running
for Director of Graduate Studies. I am a Masters In Computer
Science student here at Sac State.As a graduate student, I stand
before you today as someone who has walked in your shoes, someone
who understands the unique struggles that come with pursuing a
graduate degree. I know what it feels like to struggle to
register for classes and get instituition’s support.
I have deep compassion and respect for the sacrifice for a higher
education & I am committed to advocating for student
community.
This year I was a part of the CSSA, & I have advocated for
various bills at the Capitol at Senator Niello’s office as a
team.
We have discussed legislation such as Student Debt Relief ,bill
to prevent registration holds if students owe debt to
University,bill to prevent scholarships to be considered as
income,expand access of Food Assistance & bill to allow CSU to
offer PHDs.
I believe we have a common goal, better conditions for students.I
will work to ensure that student voices are heard & that our
concerns are represented at all levels of the university.I want
everyone to have a seat at the table.
This is about us, what we can do together to set policies in a
way that serves students better.I ask for your trust and support
to negotiate,fight and work on your behalf.
So I ask you today, to stand with me, to work with me, and to
fight alongside me. Lets make Sac State a place where students
thrive,a place where you can pursue your dreams and reach fullest
potential.
