positive effects on students. “I think the<br />

impact that it has had on our students<br />

employees is the realization what they do<br />

matters to more than just them, and so I<br />

believe that’s where the true value is.”<br />

Engaging student interest in clubs<br />

is a difficult task that Iopu Ignacio,<br />

the Student Engagement Manager,<br />

tackles with excitement. When<br />

asked about the success of clubs, he was<br />

ecstatic about the progression. “You know,<br />

from eight clubs last year…like 32 clubs [in<br />

<strong>2024</strong>,] I would say it’s a significant gap that<br />

you cannot ignore,” Ignacio said. According<br />

to Ignacio, his main goal is to keep clubs<br />

afloat, reminding them there’s resources if<br />

they need them, and overall making sure every<br />

club is getting what they need.<br />

Not many students know how they<br />

can take an active role in the<br />

policies enacted in the college,<br />

and Student Government is just<br />

the place to suggest ideas. Student Government’s<br />

main goals are making sure students<br />

are getting the resources they need to succeed<br />

and that their voices are heard in policies<br />

that are passed, plus an expanded focus<br />

on inclusivity on campus, according to Student<br />

Government President Lily Yokoda and<br />

Former Student Government Vice-President<br />

Liliana Somnuk-Eigenseher.<br />
