1) With tuition expected to rise in the next few years, involve COLA students in advocating for more funding through Invest in Texas. This is a student-led organization fighting to make UT Austin affordable, competitive, and safe by bringing a student voice to the Texas state legislature.
2) Further integrate the Liberal Arts student body into the conversation of campus carry regulation. Improve awareness and education through a continued working group and aim to better publicize mental health services, develop better safety training, and perform studies on the effects on the student body.
3) Work to expand and increase access to Liberal Arts research opportunities through heightened interaction between the college and organizations that directly work with COLA students’ interests.
4) Improve communication between organizations and movements on campus dedicated to combating sexual assault. Propose funding a permanent endowment through the university system to Voices Against Violence, a student organization that works to educate students on sexual violence and prevention. Work with student organizations on campus, creating dialogue with the many students immersed in the fight to confront this problem that has affected 1 out of 5 undergraduate women and 9.4% of undergraduate men on campus.
5) Propose a solution for making high-quality open textbooks freely available to the general public by advocating for a student government sponsored-grant and private funding from donors. These efforts will be aimed at developing and increasing E-book databases, as well as significantly lowering college textbook costs and increasing accessibility to such materials.
