Fellow members of the graduating Class of 2008, we write to you as candidates for Senior Class Representatives. We, Adam Salamon and Morgan Manoff began our career at Colby College as Feb-frosh, where we attended the University of Salamanca in Spain. Adam is a sucker for fine wines and cheap pick up lines and is more of the rugged and athletic type. Dual majoring in International Studies and Science Technology and Society, Adam knows the impacts that effective policies can have on groups of people. Morgan, the taller of the two, enjoys picking apples at unreasonable heights and will never turn down a good spooning session. With an International Studies major and a Chinese minor Morgan knows how to undertake and accomplish difficult tasks.
We all came to Colby College three years ago because we had seen what the school had to offer and believed that it would fit each of us. Our senior year is fast approaching, two and a half months to go, and we want to make sure that our last year is by far our best year. In the past our class representatives have done a good job representing us to the administration, but we believe that our class could benefit from some fresh ideas. If elected, we will ensure that each and every one of your thoughts and complaints are immediately voiced to the administration. We think that Colby, despite the great institution that it is, could benefit from change, and we are the vehicle for that change, whatever you think it should be.
We also vow to enhance each and every member of the class of 2008's social life. It would be ignorant to ignore the success of senior bar night this year, but rather than just continuing the tradition...why not try to enhance it? We've got some great ideas that would not only bring our class closer together, but also solve the problem of lame Friday nights. As representatives we would have at our disposal a significant amount of money that we want to use to help you have a more fulfilling Colby experience. Discounted bowling nights, registered parties, class sponsored skiing trips and of course wild dances are among the many ideas we have to make your senior year a great one.
Further in conjunction with the administration we hope to work to make Champagne Steps a reality in the future. Though the deans have made it apparent that they do not want this tradition to continue in the vein that it has, we think that we can reach an agreement that provides us with a chance to have a great time while also ensuring that things don't get out of control. There are issues on campus that we will focus on as well. For one, the jitney service is sub-par, at best. We will work with Security to insure a more punctual and reliable service for students living on campus and off.
Vote Manoff/Salamon for Senior Class Representatives, it's so easy a kid from Bates could do it.
