Candidate Statement: 

As well as a Political Science major, I’m an Honor Student, Sac State Speech and Debater, and Sac State Marching Band bass guitar player. While I can list more hobbies, why I adore campus, and the future I see for campus, I want even more to focus on the people.

Change is happening on our campus, yet it often feels estranged from the populace’s will. This leads to uncertainty throughout the student body. To overcome the uncertainty and regain representation accommodating for us individually and as a whole, we must join together to embark on a journey focusing on teamwork, growth, and, most importantly, community.

My name is Collin Haskin, and I’m striving to bring a strong sense of community to Sacramento State University through communicating our opinions, experiences, and goals for campus by:

1) Hosting Open Forums: a place to hold peaceful, open discussions on how as a representative I can ensure I know who I represent and what expectations you have for my elected position.

2) Becoming a link of communication, between ASI and the College of SSIS, expressing concerns, sharing goals, and nurturing a better sense of understanding between each other.

3) Delivering a campus that protects, defends, and empowers the educational ability of individuals.

4) Work towards providing opportunities for more guests to come to our campus and speak about their experiences furthering our critical understanding of the world, careers, and political environments we plan to participate in.

5) Continue to push for a diverse campus by protecting ethnic, queer, and gender equity and equality on our campus.

     It is with these five goals I wish to represent us THROUGH OUR VOICES! It must be clear: I want to hear your voices and CREATE THE CHANGE TOGETHER.

I deeply look forward to your vote towards our position!

Thank you,

Collin Haskin.

Candidate Statement:

Hello Hornets,

My name is Jonathan Poston, and I am running to be your next Director of Social Sciences & Interdisciplinary Studies because I believe in making our college experience more supportive and impactful. As a student in this college, I understand the challenges we face whether it’s advocating for better academic resources, ensuring student voices are heard, or creating more opportunities for networking and internships. I am passionate about representing our student body and committed to working hard to make real changes. I currently serve on the board of the Sac State Dems and I am committed to collaborating with other campus groups to create meaningful change. If elected, I will work to ensure that students are informed and involved in key decisions affecting our college. I will push for expanded programs, internships, and career orientated events that prepare us for life beyond the classroom. I will also focus on strengthening our campus community by fostering meaningful connections between students, faculty, and organizations. My goal is to make our campus more transparent in decision-making, engaged, and supportive for every student. I am ready to listen, take action, and fight for the changes you want to see at Sac State. I would be honored to have your vote!
