ASA endorses DSG presidential candidate

Each of the candidates who presented before the Asian Students Association Executive Board showed strong leadership capabilities and we are certain that any of them would make an excellent DSG president. ASA has taken particular care this year to identify the candidate that presented his platform most clearly. Past experiences working with the Asian Students Association was also weighed heavily, as well as a candidate's perceived ability to "get the job done." Although each of the candidates presented a strong case, we felt that junior Jordan Giordano's past experience working with student groups sets him apart from the other three candidates. His work on the Intercommunity Council as a sophomore and his position as DSG executive vice president this past year marks him as a well-qualified individual who will take the concerns of all student groups into consideration. Furthermore, his past experience working with the Asian Students Association has consistently yielded tangible results. The Asian Students Association is pleased to endorse Jordan Giordano for the position of DSG president.

Due to limited time constraints this year, the Asian Students Association was only able to interview the candidates for president. Because of this, ASA will only be endorsing a candidate for the position of president, instead of all the elected positions as it has done in the past.
