     for the candidates running in 
     
     this year's Student Union elec- 
     
     tion to present their platforms, 
     
     though notall candidates were 
     
     able to be there at the sched- 
     
     uled time 
     
    

    
     The first candidate to 
     
     speak was Stephen Hann, can-

     the time and effort involved in 
     
     the job”, and he “looks for- 
     
     ward to thechallenge” brought

     for VP Internal. A third-year 
     
     science student, Tran's her big- 
     
     gest goal is to “continue to 
     
     bridge the gap between the 
     
     SU, MAPUS, the Cadre, and 
     
     CIMN”. 
     
    

    
     The candidate running for 
     
     VP Operations is Tyler 
     
     Dougan, a third-year business 
     
     student. His big plans for the 
     
     position are to mostly keep 
     
     things about the same as they 
     
     are now. 
     
    

    
     Stephen Lewis is run- 
     
     ning for the office of VP Fi- 
     
     nance. He is also a third-year 
     
     business student. 
     
    

    
     The candidates running 
     
     for the other positions on the 
     
     SU, other than the Presidency 
     
     and the various VP positions, 
     
     also introduced themselves at 
     
     this rally. 
     
    

    
     Colin Roop, a third-year 
     
     business student, is trying for 
     
     the office of Business Repre- 
     
    
   
   
    
     sentative. Matthew Hogan, a 
     
     second-year business student, 
     
     is the candidate for the Sci- 
     
     ence Representative. Crystal 
     
     Doyle, a third-year science 
     
     student, and Crystal Garrett, a 
     
     poli-sci major, are up for two 
     
     of the positions on the senate. 
     
     Michael McKenna, a second- 
     
     year arts student, is the candi- 
     
     date for the Arts Representa- 
     
     tive. 
     
    

    
     Melissa Doucette is one 
     
     of the two people vying for the 
     
     Presidency. She isa fifth-year 
     
     arts student, and has been the 
     
     English Department Repre- 
     
     sentative on Council. Her goal 
     
     for the office is to “provide a 
     
     voice forthe students that can’t 
     
     be ignored.” Although she is 
     
     graduating this year, she is 
     
     coming back to UPEI to take 
     
     additional courses, and is ea- 
     
     ger to offer her time and serv- 
     
     ices to the office. 
     
    

    
     The other candidate for 
     
     the President’s office is Mat- 
     
     thew Gray. He is a third-year 
     
     arts student, and he has been 
     
     involved in Public Relations, 
     
     has an Audio-Visual job, and 
     
     he has been the promotions 
     
     coordinator for the SU. He 
     
     would like to see students here 
     
     at UPEI be able to “exercise 
     
     their rights.”
