VP Student Affairs Candidate Jessica Geddert

 Email Article To a Friend View Printable Version 
SESS NewsHere is a message from the candidate running for VP Student Affairs: Hello SESS members, my name is Jessica Geddert and I am running for the position of VP Student Affairs. I am in my second year of chemical engineering and my style of nerdiness is why I would be a great in this position. When I say I'm a nerd I don't mean that I know the difference between Star Wars and Star Trek nor have seen either of them, I mean that I love school and filling out paperwork and anything academic related; I look forward to the part of my career where I sit behind a desk and just organize projects and paperwork. I want to update tutor lists, exam files and used textbook sales. I want to plan tutorials and make your academic life a little easier so that making the dean's list isn't quite so far away. I think this is a great way to be involved in school life and I hope you all vote on September 28. Thank you and have a great year.
