THE DEPAUW | FRESHMAN SENATOR CANDIDATES PAGE 5TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2012
In my few weeks here at DePauw, I have already fallen in love. DePauw has managed to somehow become my home away from home. When I visited last spring, I was stunned by how friendly this campus was and how the students seemed to have an intimate relationship with their school. My goal, if elected to Senate, would be to make sure everyone feels at home here. DePauw’s student body is unique in its ability to embrace individuality yet remain cohesive. There are many different voices at DePauw, and I want to ensure that every one is heard.
Running for a student government position was always a popularity contest in high school. This presents a problem seeing as those best suited for the position do not always win. I hope the results of this election bring the best representatives who are not only right for the position, but will represent the class properly. Even though we, as first years, have only been here for less than two weeks, I hope that everyone I have met knows I am an approachable, friendly person and if elected would take any concerns and ideas from fellow students, making sure that all students have a say in the decisions that affect our campus life.

DEANNA REDER
Hey, Class of 2016, my name is Deanna Reder, and I’m asking you to vote meto be on this year’s freshman senate. Experiencing four years of student council has prepared me to be a leader here at DePauw.
As a senator, it would be my job to help host the monthly open forum where students can share their concerns to make the campus even better. One of my many ideas is for the students of DePauw an opportunity to rent bicycles for a day or the semester. This not only is a way of transportation but also eco-friendly.
In high school, I was a representative for my class. My roles included organizing the juniors against seniors annual Powderpuff football game, attending weekly Student Government meetings, planning a fall and spring pep rally for four years, helping write my high school’s constitution, helping organize Special Olympics and chair “Mr. Longhorn,” a male beauty competition. If I am elected as a member of the Senate for the Class of 2016, I will represent the class well, listen to my fellow classmates, encourage others to get involved and lead by example. I hope to bring enthusiasm, passion and school spirit to the Student Council at DePauw.
EMILY OJIKA
It would be my greatest honor to participate in DSG, and I would make it my aim to hear all the voices of the unheard students of DePauw. This would include international students, minorities and others who may not have as big of a voice in the university. I am also passionate about the environmental aims of the community. To conclude, I would basically like to be the hands and feet of the DePauw Student Government, helping when help is needed and working hard to continue to advance the already fantastic rapport DePauw has with the student body and the rest of the city.
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2012PAGE 6
If I were to be elected as a freshman senator, I would be very dedicated to my work and try my hardest to have a positive effect on this campus. Not only would I love to take part in organizing and executing, but also I would work to represent honestly and accurately any concerns and ideas from our class to the full Senate. My role would be to communicate the needs and desires of our class and to do it in a way that helps us be heard and respected. I love this school already, and I really want to help us all have a great DePauw experience.
I want all students at DePauw University to experience everything that DePauw has to offer, limited only by a student’s need for sleep as Dean of Academic Life Pedar Foss says. I believe that joining student government will help me to fulfill this new purpose. I will be a hardworking, willing and happy representative for all students. I would take the responsibility of upholding the DePauw Student Government Constitution to heart. I would give my utmost all to improve DePauw in every way possible which is why there shouldn’t be any conflict about choosing me to represent the freshmen class as first year senator.
As a class senator at DePauw University, I would put all my effort into making those around me happy — whether that is fellow senators, classmates or friends. Being a first year student at DePauw for approximately a week and a half, I don’t know many people, and I don’t know many problems or concerns around campus, but that is what makes me even more excited about this position. I am ready to meet everyone, and I am ready to help solve the problems! I am now officially a member of DePauw University’s Class of 2016, and I am ready to do my part!
I’m driven to receive an opportunity to accurately interpret the student body’s ideas, thoughts, concerns and opinions to the correct authorities to resolve issues and struggles. I will openly discuss and debate relatable topics with students collectively and on an individual basis and will give an understanding of what the needs of the students are. My allocation is to actively seek these thoughts and concerns and guide them to be properly taken care of. By working together, we as a school community can directly effect students now and for years to come; thus making DePauw’s already great experience that much more memorable.

DAVID JOHNSON
Although there are many ways to spell Hailey, the spelling of my name is perfect for class senator. “H” is for honest. "A" is for accountable. "I" is for imaginative. "L" is for listener."E" is for effective. Last but not least, "Y" is for yours truly because as part of the Class of 2016, I will lead in making a difference. As senator, I will strive to give access to study areas at all times by ID card, make recycling easier in apartments, set money aside for senior seminar funds, preserve the cohesiveness of the Class of 2016 and most importantly keep DePauw a great place.
When we first met in the Green Center for Performing Arts on our first day here at DePauw, we were asked the question, “What are you willing to put your name on?” At that moment, I realized I wanted our classes name on a legacy. Through innovation and hard work, I believe that we can hasten the renovation of the Lilly Center and advance the technology in our dorms. I want our freshmen class to be able to talk to me and tell me what they want from DePauw; and most importantly, I want to be able to take your ideas and get them done.

MARYCLARE FLORES
As vice president of Student Life, I want to constantly be educating DePauw students on how they can lead and make initiatives on campus through writing legislation and submitting white papers. It is a constant drive of betterment and pride that I want to invoke in the student body. I want to facilitate unity among a campus of all different people while appreciating those differences and utilizing them for the benefit of all. We can learn from each other. And I want to be a part of that – not as your VP OF Student Life, but your VP FOR Student Life.

THE DEPAUW | ALLOCATIONS CANDIDATES PAGE 7TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 2012
If I am elected on the Board of Allocations, I will work to ensure that all clubs that make reasonable requests will receive some form of funding over the course of the year. Additionally, I will work to create a forum or some place to publish which clubs get what amount of funding in order to create more transparency between the student body and the Board of Allocations. Lastly, wasteful spending that favors only a few students will be reduced and eliminated while projects and events that have the opportunity to serve the great student body as a whole see additional support.
I have always wanted to get involved in student government, but I never had the time to in high school. Now that I am in college and find I have more time to get involved, I am interested in becoming a part of student government. Thus, I have decided to apply for the Board of Allocations. I am a very organized person that completes everything in a timely manner. Furthermore, I am not afraid to speak up and contribute to conversations. I am a quick learner and strive to accomplish every task to the best of my abilities.
My goal as a member of the Allocation Board would be to sustain the successful clubs and to seek out those with potential. I’m a very reasonable and understanding person that would be able to manage and fairly distribute the $205 that each student pays towards clubs. Because interests continually change, clubs will have to as well. Each class of students comes with different interests. The Class of 2012 likes different things than the Class of 2016. This requires open ears and an open mind to find out what people want. I’m willing to be a flexible board member that will meet the needs of the students.
As a member of the Allocations Board, I aim to let every organization’s voice be heard and let resources be more equitably distributed based on how well the organizations plans positively impact the general student body and not be biased by the size of an organization or the historical trend of resource allocation to a particular organization in the student body. I will also bring diversity to the board and a new perspective on issues involving grey areas since I have never been on the Allocations Board.
To combat backlash from student organizations and shorten the budget reviewing period, I would work on informing organizations of the rules and limitations of funding from the Allocations Board prior to budget submission. Lastly, I would like to create a process that will hold new student organizations accountable for stating that the organization will not require funding. This will prevent any new organizations from being recognized under false pretenses. With my previous experience as both a student representative and assembly member for Congress, I will be sure to represent the perspectives of student organizations if elected to the Allocations Board.
Having served as a member of the Allocations Board for the past two years, I am quite familiar with the inner workings, processes and requirements of the board. Furthermore, I am familiar with the past issues and problems that need to be addressed this year. My two years as an active board member and my desire to continue serving as a board member are clear indications of my commitment to the Allocations Board that speak for themselves. Though fresh, new faces are an important element to any University Board or organization, experienced and knowledgeable past members such as myself are vital to ensure the utmost efficiency.
The first few questions I plan on asking include: What is this student group’s end goal? And how will these funds help them obtain this goal? Having an open mind to each and every student organization will be another mindset of mine while attacking this position. Finally, it takes a dedicated person to make for a successful Allocations Board. I promise DePauw that I will be dedicated, hardworking and prompt when it comes to completing tasks.

Wabash College’s Hokum Karem started 50 years ago, with a pair of runners alternating the mile around the campus. Each male runner must complete 3 miles, and each female runner must run 2 miles.
This was the first Hokum Karem race in Wabash’s history that was completed in the rain.
Owen Huntsmen, the race’s creator, was a legendary track and cross country at Wabash from 1949-1971. First race was said to take place in 1962, with 7 teams. In 1963 the number jumped to 13.
For the first race, the meet was split into two divisions; college and university athletes. Each division ran in the opposite direction, lending credence to the name “Hokum Karem.”
