Howdy!

Standing up for the students’ voices and making sure students pos

I care about, so much that I’m running for Student Body President.
My motto is “Carter Cares,” and I want to let you know about just five major issues

Will McAdams
As Commander of the Corps of Cadets, I sense that as a student
body we are losing some of the most special qualities that make
Aggies unique. The pillars of tradition on which we base our pride
are crumbling, specifically attendance at Silver Taps and Muster,
student attendance at Aggie sporting events and even the friendly
“Howdy” heard around campus. Issues such as these are changing
the very fabric of Aggie culture, and will continue to worsen until the student gov
ernment, working alongside the administration, finds that critical direction and goal
that will lead Texas A&M toward a better future.
This campaign is not for me, but for the students. The office of Student Body
President is not a position about just one person, but something much bigger than
ourselves. After all, that is what we are fighting for.
Please check out my Web site and take a quick look at our platform. I welcome your
feedback because this is your campaign, too. Thank you for your support.

Throughout my joumes at Texas A&M I have learned a kev principle
that has become very important in my life. This is the principle of unitv.
The position of Student Body President should be one that easuros that
there is unity among the student body. To do this it is imperative that the
student body president is actively involved in all student affairs and has constant dialogue
with all students. The student body’s wants and needs arc my focas and I believe in the stu
dents’ power to influence and I want to make our voice heard. By providing a unified goal
and struggling to get there as one. the students can achieve so much more together than sep
arated. Students and their involvement are w hat make this University great. The input of the
student body should be considered in every decision made on campas. I am excited about
the opportunity to serve the student body by ensuring that your interests are considered. For
more information on what I am about, please refer to www.backjack04.com

tions, fiscal responsibility, accountability, and traditions. I will vigoroas-

bonfire site to the campas master plan. I have also developed a 41 -point
plan of specific policy objectives that I will undertake as SBP. If you have
any questions, please visit my Web site (www.MarkMcCaig.com). Remember, the Student
Government belongs to us. It’s time we took it back.

ter for those to come. I am involved in seven oiganizations on campus ranging from Parents
Weekend Committee, to Change, to a two-year Fish Camp counselor, to Ags of OAK, to the
