We strongly encourage members of the student body to read the platforms and ask the candidates about their ideas. Campaigning through mass communication, social media, and physical collateral (posters, buttons, etc.) is not consistent with Student Council election norms. We also strongly discourage blanket “vote for me” statements and solicitations without substantive conversations about platforms.
