In support of Progress Party 1

In the spring of 2009, the Progress Party was founded in an attempt to overthrow a political system composed of an entrenched group of overly entitled elites that rendered the UF Student Government completely inaccessible to the students it promised to represent. I had the honor to serve as the Progress Party’s presidential candidate with some of the most thoughtful and passionate students I met during my time at UF.

Block tuition beneficial for UF students

I am frustrated with the lack of options the Student Body has in our choices for Student Body President, namely with both candidates’ opposition against block tuition. I am tired of hearing about the “vast majority” of students who take less than 15 credit hours because that is  incorrect.

Graduate student proud to belong to SG party

I choose to Unite because results matter. I don’t want false promises or dirty politics. I choose a party that believes in following through, campaigning hard and respecting people along the way. I choose Unite. I’ve been a part of the late-night and early-morning campaigning. More importantly, I’ve seen the dedication and long hours Unite members put in once appointed to get the results for their constituents.

Fears about open carry, firearms on campuses unfounded

Senate Bill 234 was filed in December and is unrelated to the Arizona tragedy, despite recent media articles making it sound like a response. This bill would remove the restriction on individuals currently holding a valid Concealed Weapon or Firearm License (CWFL) from carrying on college campuses. It would also introduce open carry to Florida.
