“Let me tell you a story…” (Part 5 of 9)
So what would you do if you suddenly found yourself elected to public office with a huge mandate… and no platform?
That’s the question-behind-the-question of this next snippet of my interview with the NCSU Libraries Student Leadership Initiative.
Here’s a hint: we did a lot of things for the first time ever, and didn’t give three-tenths of half a damn what the University Administration thought about it 
Questions in this Clip:
00:00 – So following your election to the presidency, did you make an effort to instate Hankins as Student Senate President?
02:23 – So you just mentioned the fee referendum, so we’ll talk about that if you don’t mind. Can you describe the student fee referendum and how your administration implemented it?
08:45 – As Student Senate President, you called for Congressional repeal of a bill that limited financial aid given to students with drug convictions. What inspired you to advocate for that issue?
Hope all of you had a great Wednesday! More tomorrow
