My name is Marija, and I am running for ASFC's Student Trustee! I strive to uplift student voices and improve Foothill's campus by serving my community at a district wide level. I believe everyone deserves the right to fair and equitable treatment in an academic setting, which in turn grants the student's ability to grow and prosper. By addressing current issues like student housing, basic needs, and immigration, I aim to represent my peers by passing legislation that solidifies Foothill's mission and protects student's rights through utilizing student input.

Hey Foothill! My name is Dana and I am a math major. I am running for senator so I can build sensors in our campus parking lots so you can see if and how many spots are available in each lot.

Since Fall, I have gained a love for this school, being the chair for Jewish Heritage Month and Women's History Month as well as helping out with our Physics Show. I hope to make our campus a (parking) lot better next year :)
