The Student Union Assembly is responsible for governing the undergraduate population of UC Santa Cruz. Every spring campus wide elections are held to allow students to vote on their leaders within the SUA, as well as a number of ballot referendums, that if passed with increase student fees. While the Elections Commission urges students to vote, it also wants to advocate for educated voting. In order to inform students on the platforms and qualifications of SUA candidates, the SUA Elections Commission is holding officer candidate debates tonight, Tuesday April 29th from 7:30-9:30pm in the 9/10 MPR. Please come out and get educated, meet your potential leaders, and form your opinion about your campus politics. Your vote is your voice, so don't let it go to waste!
