President Craig Reitmeier Hello FIzzers, Over the past year I have been a part of the Fizz exec as your Board of Studies representative for the electrical option. You may have enjoyed some delicious pizza as a result of my efforts. Over the next year, I aim to work on increasing the interaction of Fizz with other engineering departments to improve the connection that we have with engineering as a whole. But wait, that's not all.... I'd also like to work with the VP Events to keep the number and quality of events to improve the social aspect of Fizz. But wait, there's more.... Fizz tutoring is an important way for Fizz to give back to students and helps bring in money to help fund some great Fizz events. As such, I want to help maintain the high level of quality that we have had in the past. I plan to work with the VP Academic to increase student turnout as well as enjoyment. But wait, there's more.... No wait, there isn't. Slap Chop! Treasurer Connor Vandenberg Hello fellow fizzers! My name is Connor Vandenberg and I am running to be your treasurer for 2012-2013. I am currently in my second year here at UBC and I have been actively involved in the EUS for the past two years. This includes my position as the extracurricular coordinator on first year council and my current position of Red Sales Co-Manager. I have several goals for the upcoming year: I will ensure that financial records are kept up to date and all financial activity is well documented. I will also keep the fizz merchandise well stocked as well as add new merchandise. I will strive to maintain a transparent budget since students should have the right to know where their student fees are being allocated. I will respond to requests and handle reimbursements as quickly as possible. A little bit about myself: Before coming to UBC, I spent most of my live growing up in sunny Kelowna. When I am not busy with school or work, I enjoy skiing, sailing, and playing piano. I am an active member of the Sigma Phi Delta engineering fraternity. If you have any questions, I can be reached at connor.vandenberg@gmail.com Vice-President Academic Melissa Liu Hello, I'd like to run for VP Academic. I had a great time being year rep, and I'd like to contribute more to fizz. Thank you! Melissa Vice-President Events Co-candidates: Russell Vanderhout and Ryan Yee Hello! I'm Russell Vanderhout. I like to play with my pet budgie which we found on the street last week. I'm in 4th year going on 5th year (at time of writing this) and I'm running for Vice-President Events. How do I qualify? Because I've done this sort of thing before: during my very first co-op term at some Canadian smartphone company I helped plan events for the co-ops and stood by them no matter how many people weren't interested in coming. Also, I would expect this to be more fun as there are no legal issues to deal with (drinking, copyright infringement, intellectual property, etc.) I am also somewhat interested in helping with the FilmfEUSt competition (did we do one this year? I don't think so). I'm also going to live on campus and have more time to waste. Anyways, make the right choice and vote for me! Russell -- Hello Fizzers, My name is Ryan and I'm running for VP events. I'm entering my 5th year specializing in the EE option, and I have some awesome plans for next year. You can trust me on this. Cheers, Ryan Grad Representative Liam Lawson
Hey Fizz, After 4, 5, or 6 years, were finally in the home stretch. We ‘ve seen and been through a lot together, with a seemingly endless blur of midterms, labs, and assignments interspersed with some incredibly fun times. But we did it together, and I couldn’t be happier or prouder to graduate with each and every one of you next spring. As your Grad Rep I’ll represent your interests in Fizz as well as coordinating grad photos, ring sizing, and work with the EUS for our graduation ceremony. Cheers, Liam 4th Year Representative Dominic Tong Hey Fizz 4! I'm Dominic! I was your 2nd year co-rep two years ago, and now I'm running to be your 4th year rep. I've been VP Academic this past year, so I think I'll be helpful on your Exec not only as your voice and connection to Exec, but to the future VP's as well. I'm always reachable by email or in-person, and I'd like to be your voice on Exec! 3rd Year Representative Martin Ho Hey Fizzers! I'm Martin. What do you look for in a year rep? Someone who is devoted to their position, who takes action, who is active both academically and socially, who sees the issues everyone else does, and who humiliates theirselves enough to be approachable. I am that person. So vote Ho, because this Ho will work hard to satisfy you. Secretary Co-candidates: Lara Backer and Sophia Moreno Hi Fizzers! We're Lara and Sofia, both 4th years and in the Mechanical Option. We're great note-takers, and want to be part of the exec team next year to make your year better! We will be sure to contribute our time and ideas to the other Execs! Board of Studies MECH/MESC Representative Matthew Kutarna What Fizz really needs for the BOS position is a BOSS. As your BOSM rep, I will suit up when required to tackle the curriculum issues haranguing FIZZ-MECH and FIZZ-MESC. I will continue to build off of the amazing work of the previous rep, including having sufficient pizza for the bi-annual beef and pizza. I look forward to helping the Exec and Board of Studies shape Fizz into the best program it can be.
Thanks, Matthew Kutarna Board of Studies EECE/CPSC Representative Co-Candidates: Eddy Wu and Tanya Roussy Hello, we are Eddy Wu and Tanya Roussy and we would like to be your Board of Studies Representatives. As your Board of studies representatives, we would ensure your questions and concerns regarding classes are heard and dealt with. We will also ensure there will be sufficient pizza for Beef and Pizza events! Cheers! Sports Representative No candidates running. Penthouse Manager No candidates running. Computer Overlord Mike Caverley Hi Fizzers, If I am elected as computer overlord next year, my goals are:
Please vote on voting day and don't forget to vote for me for computer overlord! Pop God No candidates running. |
