Hi,
I am Corey T. Boone, and I want to be the next Student Body President of the Georgia Institute of Technology. Why, you ask? I’m running because I love this school and its people. I want to lead in a way that enhances the Georgia Tech Community, provides a learning environment that truly enriches lives, and proactively addresses the needs of all Georgia Tech Students.
As Student Body President, I will:
o Expand the Add/Drop Period.
o Lift Major Restrictions earlier during registration the period.
o Add a centralized platform that allows students to apply for overload requests in place on Oscar.
o Oversee the Continued Redevelopment of Course Critique
o Develop an Academic Rights and Expectations that will allow students and faculty to find common ground.
o Develop a Faculty-Student Mentoring Program.
o Review tenure to place a greater emphasis on teacher effectiveness.
o Implement a “Service Option” to be added to the curriculum of each major.
o Advocate for an i-Tunes Library of Georgia Tech’s best lecturers
o Advocate for more campus areas for students to “Hangout” on and around campus.
o Advocate for a diversity component to be added to the evaluation of all Georgia Tech faculty and staff members.
o Advocate for a revision in campus alcohol policies that allow for a Good Samaritan Provision.
o Advocate for more campus services that employ students
o Restructure the Communications Board to include a Director of Student Engagement.
o Establish a workable communications platform here at Tech that eliminates the countless emails that students receive on a daily basis.
