YCSC Performance Review

The Yeshiva College Student Council is charged with the consequential mission of representing the interests of the student body in all collective dealings with the administration and faculty of Yeshiva College. They are further responsible for the coordination of extra-curricular activities and enhancement of student life on campus. Council members are granted a tremendous amount of power and influence, and are seemingly capable of generating extensive change within this university.

Herding the Masses

Either the common quip that relegates our generation to political apathy is accurate, or YU students are fully content with their undergraduate experience thus far. These two conclusions seem the only way to fathom the nature of this year's upcoming student elections, which promise to sweep our campus with an unusually quiet and civilized hand. One might almost forget the plethora of political mudslinging that has characterized previous years' elections. A quick glance at the list of candidates running for various student leader positions reveals that many races have only a single candidate running for some previously coveted positions. Except for the contest for YCSC President, the races that have more than one candidate running for a single position seem rather ordinary and may prove to draw only a small voter turnout.
