As a member of multiple groups on campus across multiple faculties, an employee of a CUSA business, its safe to say I have been an active member of the Carleton community since coming here for my second-year of studies. After the previous semester getting involved with CUSA’s policy I want to see CUSA succeed, become more transparent in its decision-making, and able to thrive for years to come. CUSA needs enhanced cooperation between council and executive and board, and I hope to be able to bring that through my actions within CUSA.
