BENGAL PRIDE PARTY: TYNAN O’NEIL AND ZARA SIVERTSEN
My name is Tynan O’Neil and I am a health care administration student from Boise, Idaho asking for your vote for ASISU president. Over my past three years at ISU, I have been involved in the ISU Ambassador Program recruiting new students, with the National Society of Collegiate Scholars as the club president creating leaders for tomorrow and as a Bengal Cheerleader rooting on athletics! Most recently I have served as an ASISU senator with a focus on assuring that the students have a voice in the decisions we make in student government. Another focus of mine has been to grow the culture we have at ISU to assure we have an environment that students will love, and contribute to, for years to come. I will work with students, faculty, staff and the community to paint the campus orange and black so that when you come on campus, you know you’re in Bengal Country! Better yet, I plan to seek outside sources of funding for some of the projects I have planned, as I did when I secured a $7,000 donation from ISUCU for brand new mats for our cheer team. I live and breathe ISU and I bleed orange and black. I am Tynan O’Neil and I would truly appreciate your vote! Go Bengals!
My name is Zara Sivertsen and I am running for ASISU vice president. I am a pre-pharmacy major from Meridian, Idaho. I came to ISU for the pharmacy program, but I have gotten so much more than just great academics at ISU. The university is filled with opportunities to make new friends, get involved and network. I am a member of the University Honors Program, I co-instructed a First Year Seminar class last semester, I am a member of Phi Delta Chi which is the pharmacy fraternity here on campus and I am currently the ASISU secretary. I spend 24 hours a day at ISU, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I live on campus, work on campus and study on campus. I want every student to love going to ISU, and I hope to do so by increasing school spirit and involvement. My name is Zara Sivertsen and I would love your vote! Go Bengals!
ORANGE PARTY: KYLE SON AND TAYLOR TINGEY
We will work to keep school affordable for students through fighting to prevent student fees and tuition from increasing.
In addition to keeping tuition and student fees down, we would like to work with the future student government to create more scholarship opportunities for students and making scholarships more accessible to all students.
We will make sure that the money students currently pay that goes to student government is spent responsibly and transparently. One of the ways in which we aim to do this is in the implementation of a scanning system for Bengal ID cards that would help keep track of where the students money is being spent best.
We will strive to boost involvement, by increasing awareness and support for all types of different events going on around campus.
Having grown up in this town, we will strengthen the bonds we already have with the community and continue to build new relationships.
We believe Idaho State University is a place where diversity should be embraced and promoted, which is exactly what we plan to do if elected. We recognize that involvement doesn’t start and stop at coloring everything orange and black. There are thousands of students on campus involved in hundreds of different programs, clubs and organizations. If elected, it will be our personal mission to support each and every student in as many ways as possible as well as to encourage other students to support their fellow Bengals.
Most importantly, we promise to keep an open mind when it comes to making decisions that will affect students. We realize that with diversity comes difference of opinion and that in its -self demands respect. Vote for integrity, vote Son and Tingey!
