STUDENT WELFARE
Being a member of the Student Welfare Commission (SWC) for the
past year has been a tremendous experience. Working closely with
other students has greatly enhanced my experience at UCLA and has
taught me many skills necessary to be an effective leader.
As the Director of Programming for the past two quarters, I have
headed many projects, including the Smoking Awareness Carnival and
Roll-Aids. Working on these and other SWC programs has allowed me
to develop my leadership skills and prepare me for a position as
commissioner.
Seeing the potential that SWC has in making a difference at
UCLA, I am eager to head the commission next year and serve the
students of UCLA. Once elected I will make it my top priority to
address the needs and concerns of the UCLA community.
One of my major goals for SWC next year is the initiation of an
annual AIDS Walk UCLA. Through this event I hope to increase AIDS
awareness at UCLA and raise money for various organizations. As
student welfare commissioner, I will, to the best of my abilities,
organize and promote activities which will further the welfare of
the UCLA student body through awareness and education.
