Meet the candidates: student trustee

Meet the candidates: student trustee

Alaizza Rato and Andrew Shinjo | March 5, 2018

Presidential candidate Lawrence Su, 18, business administration major, said he believes he can reorganize the senate into a better student resource. As president, more than 25 senators would look to him for leadership. Su’s first initiative would be preparing them for their responsibilities by bettering training. “What was shocking to me, in the previous year there was no training whatsoever … that kind of explains their effectiveness this current year,” said Su. “Once I come in, we’re going to hit the ground running … I already have a plan ready for them.” To Su, the senators are the most valuable marketing tools. Increasing their vocality on campus by organizing events will help students realize their presence as a resource. Being proactive fiscally will lead to effective spending. Student interaction is free and with senators working together, Su knows they can do more with less. Su wants to be in touch with as many De Anza students as possible, understanding diversity leads to a variety of needs. “I’m from San Francisco,” he said. “My dad’s in the Army ... we moved around a lot, that’s the whole entire perspective, I see a lot of different people, live in different cultures.”
