Student body president candidates Emma Carter, a third year studying sociology and international studies, and Alex Obiol, a fourth year studying textile-engineering, talk about their platforms at the student government election debate on Thursday, Feb. 28, 2019 in the Senate Chambers at Talley Student Union.
Three of the four tickets for student body president and vice president will participate in Student Media’s annual Student Government election debate Friday, Feb. 28 at 6:30 p.m. in Talley Student Union room 4140, the Student Government chambers. Attending president and vice president candidates, respectively, are as follows:
Sam Brohaugh, a third-year studying civil engineering, and Erinn Foote, a second-year studying philosophy and political science;
Max Stoltz, a third-year studying parks, recreation and tourism management, and Hannah Stoltz, a second-year studying fashion and textile management;
Melanie Flowers, a third-year studying communication, and McKenzy Heavlin, a second-year studying electrical engineering.
One ticket will not be present: Student body president candidate Carlie Higgins, a third-year transfer student in political science and communication, has stated that she and student body vice president candidate Powell Braddock, a first-year studying chemical engineering, will be unable to attend the debate due to scheduling conflicts.
The debate is open to the public and serves as a chance for students to get to know candidates. In a similar format to last year’s Student Government debate, students may send questions ahead of time to Technician through Facebook, Twitter and email via technician-news@ncsu.edu.
