Official Statement
Hello fellow Ags! My name is Sergio Blanco. I am a second year Political Science major, and I am running for ASUCD Senate. For the past year I have been involved with L.E.A.D. as an intern for current Senator and Presidential candidate Ivan Carrillo. In my time as an intern I have helped with the writing and passage of an ASUCD Senate Resolution that encouraged the expansion of the foreign language program at UC Davis. Furthermore, I have organized events that raise awareness about the declining diversity on campus and our rising tuition fees. As a Senator, I will work to raise awareness about ways to pay for college and improve our campus life.
In order to raise knowledge of financial aid resources, I will work with the Student Recruitment Retention Center, Educational Opportunity Program, ASUCD unit Pathfinder, and the financial aid office so that we can better educate current and potential students about ways to finance their education. There are financial resources available that students are not aware of, and the more educated we are about these resources; the less students have to worry about paying for school.
I will also enhance campus life for all students by promoting free and open events, such as a Battle of the Bands. In order to achieve this goal I will work with different campus clubs and organizations. These entertainment options will not only bring more excitement to campus but they will also encourage students to engage in the campus community.
Please join my fight for a less stressful and more entertaining college experience by voting Sergio Blanco #1 for ASUCD Senate. Thank you for your time.
