Sofia Moreno Haq

Sofia Moreno Haq would bring a solid amount of student government experience to the council table, despite having no prior experience in USAC, having served as a student senator at her community college prior to transferring to UCLA.

However, her platforms as a whole were underwhelming, and she failed to sufficiently explain how she would execute them, such as bringing back peer learning to the Hill after its funding was cut three years ago. She also failed to explain how she would ensure that her platforms, such as a multicultural fair, would go beyond simple programming and include groups or students that traditionally do not participate in USAC activities.

One of her platforms, a monthly guide to L.A., would be redundant as a number of media outlets already publish similar material. As a whole, Haq has the enthusiasm and leadership needed for the position, but her platforms don’t make the cut.
