Vice President

Megan Coe

Class of 2005, if you want to have an awesome freshman year elect me, Megan Coe, for Vice President.

As Vice President I will be in charge of social programming. I plan on putting together exciting events such as concerts, parties, or even a hypnotist show. More importantly, I will always be open to suggestions from you, and I will do my best to plan events that will be tons of fun for the entire class.

In addition, I will work to improve other aspects of your life here at Hopkins. Would you like to: have Wolman open on Saturdays, be able to meal equiv at the Jay Store, reduce the mouse population in AMR II, or have free shuttles to the Inner Harbor and other places around Baltimore? If I am elected I will work on these issues, as well as any others you inform me of.

I will bring a great deal of experience in planning events and getting things done, which I acquired as a member of my high school student council. If you have any questions, concerns, or suggestions, please come talk to me in Gildersleeve 337, or call x5905. And remember, on October 22nd vote Megan Coe for Vice President.

Jaime Dutton

When we applied to JHU last year we were told there was no social life. It's not true. I've gone to great parties and made great friends. I hope you have too. But like many of you, I am still wondering isn't there somewhere else I can be? Isn't there something else to do? As your class Vice-President, I'd like to see that change.

We live in a major metropolitan area that very few of us have ventured into. I would like more available transportation to places like the Inner Harbor and Fell's Point and inform students more about activities such as festivals, concerts and other events.

I also want to improve things on-campus. From the lack of a student union and evaporation of Levering Market as a student-friendly dining facility to the sorry conditions of the Building A and B lounges, there are many topics I'd tackle if elected to office.

I'll admit it - major changes aren't needed, but some of us are paying $35,000 a year to go here. $35,000 for a good time? I want a great time. You do too. Let me help you have a great time this year. Vote Jaime Dutton for Vice-President.

Tarik Najeddine

Hi, my name is Tarik Najeddine, I'm running for the Vice-Presidency of our freshman class. I live in AMR I Wilson (after being De-Tripled, and moved from B), and I'm a Biology Major. I am an Aquarius, and I enjoy long walks on the beach and picnics - but that is besides the point.

I'm actually having a really good time at Johns Hopkins. To be honest, I have no major complaints about campus life or classes (well, besides the point that I understand nothing in any of my classes, but that's another story). So, I just want to keep it this way. That is why I want to be your Vice-President. Not to institute some major, sweeping reforms to this University, but I want to make small, measured changes that affect the way we live on, and off campus in a real, yet subtle way.

Such as trying to get Levering Dining Hall back on the meal plan, or getting Wolman open on Saturday. Little things (and yes, for all you English majors, I know the last sentence was a fragment), that will make our lives better as students. Thank you for your time, and if you ever want to find me, I'll probably be at the HUT.

Karina Schumacher-Villasante

My name is Karina Schumacher-Villasante. I am a city girl at heart - I was born in Buenos Aires, I moved to Madrid and finally to New York City. Don't be fooled by the German half of my last name because I am fully Hispanic: my mother is Cuban and my father is Colombian.

I am running for Vice President. I am approachable, good at listening, organizing and executing projects. I am goal oriented and am committed to completing my goals. In high school I held several positions of leadership. I want to be vice president because I want to be an active member of my class. I want to make their college experience the best that it can be when concerning the comfort of everyday lives and their recreational activities when not in school. I would like to focus on a few target points: making Levering more of a student union, providing more art classes at the Mattin Center, organizing shuttle schedules, working on opening Wolman for Saturday meals, and organizing a social board for our class. Also, I would like to make myself accessible by putting up suggestion boxes around the school so that I can hear what every student has to say.
