Eagleionline received the following statement from Frank Zonars, Candidate for Law Students Association (LSA) Secretary. Eagleionline thanks Frank for his submission (and Dylan Hayre and Peter Foundas before him), and encourages all candidates to post their press releases, platforms, links to Facebook pages, advertisements and the like on Eagleionline to help the student body make a more informed choice about their elected representatives during the 2010-11 academic year. 

I’m Frank Zonars and I ask for your vote this week for LSA Secretary!

If you don’t care much about the LSA, skip straight to my persuasive campaign video:

If you DO care about the LSA, read my statement:

I want every student at BCLS to feel that they have a voice.  As an undergrad I felt disconnected from my university, and I don’t want my classmates at BC to feel that way.  Even though most of us are more concerned with exams and finding jobs than the LSA, all students should feel that they can have a voice in the day-to-day life of the law school.

As a 1L rep, I strove to make sure that Section 2’s voice was heard.  I was proud to be involved in obtaining the direct shuttles from Cleveland Circle.  More importantly, I tried to be an approachable liaison between the LSA and my section—someone to whom people felt comfortable expressing their real feelings about how BCLS is run.

My pledge as LSA Secretary is to ensure that YOUR voice is heard, and that your opinion counts.  I pledge to maintain the LSA’s transparency policies of inviting anyone to attend meetings, and making meeting minutes available to the law school.  I pledge to increase communication between the law school and the LSA elected board.  With plenty of communication, the LSA can make BCLS a more welcoming place for every law student.
