SGA Elections

My name is Abbie O’Neill and I would like to be your class Vice President. I have been involved in student government in the past, and believe my experience could benefit our class. Like the SGA flyer says, the first priority is the student body and I am dedicated to serving your needs. I am willing to work with students and administrators to ensure a positive college experience for all members of the class of 2016. I am a kind, caring, and dedicated person; so if elected, I will listen to you and do everything within my power to help.

If I could describe myself using one word, it would be dedicated. When I set my mind to attempt a goal, I am dedicated to see it accomplished. If there is a need for change, I will be dedicated to do my best to have an outcome that will suit the needs of the freshman class. I am one who leads by example and is dedicated to bring positive energy with me at all times. My name is Adrianna Vicino and I would be honored to represent the freshman class to the fullest in the Quinnipiac University Community.

Fellow Bobcats! I am very excited about the prospect of representing our class as President. I have dreamed of being part something bigger than myself. I would be honored as one of the few selected to bring 2016 together and have a beneficial effect on our new home at Quinnipiac. I am effervescent, honest, and most importantly approachable. I have had numerous leadership roles through volunteering and clubs I organized and lead during my high school career. This makes me perfect for the role. Thank you for your time. A vote for A.Wile will make you A. Smile!

Being a member in my high school’s government council for 3 consecutive years and President of the council my senior year made me realize that this organization has nothing to do with politics but only with fulfilling the students’ needs. Coming from Greece, where I was born and lived all my life until now, was a very important decision for me. That’s why I am going to make most of it and achieve all those goals I came here for. I care about Quinnipiac and for all of its students as it will be my home for the next 4 years.

Class of 2016: Not only are we Quinnipiac’s biggest class, but also its brightest. I have high expectations for the potential of our class and the mark we will leave. With a big class comes big ideas; I want to make those ideas happen. I am excited to speak up for our class and have a positive effect on QU. With your help and support we can have a lasting impact on the school and change Quinnipiac for the better. Vote Marotti for freshmen Vice President!

Throughout my whole life I’ve been the type of person to lead rather than follow. Always the first to come up with ideas in a group, lead a team on the field during athletics and most importantly, excel at almost anything I put my mind to. If you are looking for promises, I will offer none, except that I will take every idea of yours into consideration and once one comes that’s possible, I will run with it in full force. I will exceed all expectations and make Quinnipiac University something we are all a little bit more proud of.— Anthony Geranio

A good president must have leadership qualities, an outgoing personality, and a love for bettering the community. I believe I am a good fit for president because I not only have those qualities but I also have the experience. Throughout my high school career, while participating in other clubs, I was president of the debate team, and a devoted representative in my school’s Student Government. I have worked with my fellow students and advisors to help improve school quality before and am very excited to do it again for QU. I will not let the class of 2016 down!— Bianca Solano

To many I am the definition of a leader, but quite honestly I believe leadership has defined me. Having a vast amount of leadership training and roles under my belt, I have been distinguished as a character built strong and compassionate, hardworking and dedicated, positive and proactive, honest and trustworthy. As I campaign for this position I believe all of these characteristics are ones that make a great leader. As part of the Quinnipiac class of 2016, representing our class will put me in the exact place I want to be, completing another goal, waiting to take on another.— Bianca Grimshaw

Hello, my name is Ciera Omos! If you vote for me, then you are voting for a forceful advocate of the freshman class. Although everyone may not know me personally, I have a very outgoing personality and would be grateful for the opportunity to represent your voice as Vice President. I would love to hear all your ideas and see where we can take them. Nothing would excite me more than making changes to better your college experience. I am also proposing that the class of 2016 holds different events to bring our class together as a community. I stand in admiration of your passions, and I humbly ask for support in the coming election.

Hey guys, my name is Danny Brecher. I am from Long Island, and live in Commons. I love to wrestle, play baseball, and just overall have a good time with good friends. I know I am a great choice to be our class VP, because of my great leadership and personable characteristics. Anybody that meets me can instantly pick up on my fun, yet serious attitude. I will work to make sure our voice is heard, and that we have an amazing first year on campus. If you want success, and a great year, vote for Danny Brecher, freshman VP.

Growing up, I wasn’t the most outgoing person. Being teased was something I dealt with almost everyday of my life. It took a huge hit on my self-esteem, to the point where I almost wanted to switch schools. Time passed, peoples’ voices started to fade and eventually I found my own voice. I learned to get things done I needed to let go of insecurities and march to the beat of my own drum. Being elected Vice President at my high school taught me that an underdog could make their way to the top. I’m the best candidate for Freshman Class President because every student has a voice, and by picking me your voice will be heard.—-Emily Fagan

I have been nominated to many leadership roles, both from my high school and in other communities. I was the president of four clubs at my high school, one of which I founded. I also attended a few leadership conferences that were nationally held. I was also voted to be the class treasurer for my class. I believe I would make a good president because I am personable, and I have good leadership skills. My goal as President would be to insure that all of the tasks we are charged with as a class are done quickly and effectively. — Jacob Bulian

Hey guy, my names Jonathan Atkin, but most people call me Jonny. I’m a Legal Studies major from Boston, Mass. I consider myself to be down-to-earth and easy to talk to. I have a broad range of interests, so it helps me stay in-tune to what goes on around campus. I take pride in my ability to effectively communicate with a large group of people. If chosen to represent the freshman class, I will do everything in my power to improve our community.

Affable, considerate, and understanding are words that describe me- Joshua Hudson. As a prospective candidate looking only to improve the Quinnipiac community, I am prepared to make the community a better place for the class of 2016. My leadership experience in high school clubs and sports transitions into college and I have the determination accomplish things. Any concerns that students have, I am willing to listen. I believe that it is only right that during my time at Quinnipiac University, I devote myself to a cause greater than myself. Freshman class president is my way of giving back.

Hello students of the Class 2016 at Quinnipiac University. My name is Julia Gonsalves and I am running for the class office of Vice President. Many of you may be thinking, “What makes Julia so great for this position?” Well first of all I am very experienced when being a part of student government. I was a representative for my class all through high school, and I’m very personable. The student body would be my prized possession and there would be no questions unanswered. With 100% percent effort, I will fulfill the requests of the class of 2016.

Hi my name is Kerrigan Murray. I am a freshman here at Quinnipiac and running for class representative. In high school, I was secretary of my class and had many duties and responsibilities.

Dear Freshman Class Of 2016, I’m Lauren Allen and I’m running in this election to be your Class Representative.

Let’s be honest, no one wants a class president who’s afraid to get out and make things happen.

I plan on pushing for things like better cell phone reception around campus, creating club sports and expanding intramurals, and more community events. I am already a part of the Quinnipiac community as a part of the staff for The Chronicle and a member of iLead. I’m always available to talk: just stop by Commons (263) or call me (203-747-9930).

When you hear the word president you often think of someone who is serious and uptight. However, I am easygoing, optimistic, and I get the job done with a smile on my face.

The reason I believe I am the most qualified candidate for the Class President of 2016 is because I firmly believe that a President should be an authority figure that makes decisions for their student body by taking into account the needs and wants of their peers. I am not going to rattle off all my accomplishments or list a ton of things I promise to change to try to impress you. I can promise you that if you do vote for me I will listen to what you have to say and be the voice for our class.—Tom Madzey

Plain and simple, I will always have an open mind while representing you as your president. I have a wealth of experience as president of my high school class, where I was never afraid to stand up for the class. This included a controversial petition to change the date of graduation, facing ridicule from administration, faculty, and parents. I cannot promise the impossible and I’m not going to make you believe I can make the impossible happen. However, I can promise to be an approachable representative for the Class of 2016 with strength and persistence—always standing up for you.— Zachary Blanchard
