Background


Since arriving at CUA I have committed myself to ensuring the highest quality college experience for both myself and my fellow classmates.  This past year I have served on the First General Assembly as a Delegate for the Class of 2011 as well as Chairman of the, largest committee in SAGA, the  Student Life Committee.  Despite being only one of two Sophomores with leadership positions within SAGA I committed the Student Life Committee to engaging the most pressing issues facing the students here at Catholic.  In this year alone my committee tangled with the issue of Juicy Campus, the problem of concerns over Student Life on Campus, the prospect of putting a DVD rental machine in the PRYZ, the alarming number of incidents involving drugs and alcohol first semester, and many more.

During this first meeting of the Assembly I have been the most active legislator in the entire body, with five bills that I have either sponsored or cosponsored passed into law.  These bills span a number of issues centered around building a tradition of responsible representation for the student of The Catholic University of America.

During my freshman year I served in the Cardinal Student Association, the transitional student representation body designed to serve while the Constitution of the Student Association was being formulated.  I was originally elected to the post of Student Life Senator I ultimately assumed the position of Class President when the sitting President, Tony Mammunes resigned.

Over the past two years I have developed a record of dutifully serving my peers and the University as a whole and in future posts I will release details of my record.
