What’s your beef with college?

Whats your beef with college?

Trams in parking lots, cheaper text books, library hours more suitable to students, increased safety , and scholarship information: All this and more is what the Associated Students want to offer to you.

Tuesday, the Associated Students leaders came out to talk to the students about any concerns on their mind.

Students signed on to offer their help in getting their concerns addressed and get their problems dealt with.

“The students are the one with the power, they need to get involved, they elected us and without their backup and power we are useless,” declares Juan Hernandez, student Senator.

The students and student leaders were glad to see that their worries will be shared with the administration and the president.

Eric Wassgren, business management major, exclaimed, “It’s dangerous walking in the parking lot and it’s too far away. I don’t feel like getting run over.”

“I signed up for mathematics, parking lot, and scholarship. These are important because I don’t get financial aid. I don’t qualify for it. I took school at night once and the parking is filled just as in the morning,” said Maria Plascencia who is majoring in film.

Major concerns for students are parking lot safety and a variety of tutors.

The parking lots are too crowded and long to walk and there aren’t enough tutors for classes besides English and math are the biggest complaints the students reported, according to Nassrin Bonyadloo, the Associated Student President and Board of Trustees student member.

This is the first time that the student body has had a direct meeting with the students about their concerns.

Bonyadloo had it all planned out.

The Senate and the Associated Students leaders have a table with sign up sheets that the students can come up to and sign their name, phone number, and student number that would be saved so they can be called upon to show their strong support.

The students could choose to sign for a diversified list of problems ranging from emergency safety phones in parking lots, trams, moving library hours, variety of tutors, better counseling support, more math teacher, and more.

A “Human Suggestion Box” is what Bonyadloo called the event, adding, “The students will see that the student body is doing everything for their success. Student success is our biggest priority.”
