North House resident Slotnick, if elected, would become the first woman to lead the council since its formation six years ago.

She says her administration's goals would include a council newsletter, campus-wide social events, minority faculty recruitment and pressuring the administration for an undergraduate student center.

"No one wants to wake up one morning and find a student center that doesn't meet the students' needs," says Slotnick.

She emphasizes the importance of "building a trust with various departments within the school...Trust is a step toward getting more student input."

Slotnick also proposes a student-faculty committee to centralize approval of large campus social events, so that council organizers would not have to appeal to a variety of administrators for each event.

The history and literature concentrator says her candidacy for chairman is bolstered by her accomplishments as services committee chairman, including the inception of the Julio Delvalle Memorial Public Service prize and the chartered buses which went to the Yale game. Her committee also presided over the installation of condom machines in all the houses last spring.
