As UA student representative, I hope to encourage a greater sense of unity amongst students and represent them equally to the rest of the student government and University of Pennsylvania administration. We are the Freshman class of 2018, and whether you go to Wharton or CAS, Engineering or Nursing, we are all Penn students. With that in mind, I hope to bring up Freshman issues such as further Freshman oriented activities, more opportunities to reach out to upperclassman, increased dining plan options and changes, and in general an increased sense of spirit. Coming into Penn I was nervous about meeting people and taking new classes, but I already know, even in such a short span of time, that it's going to be a great four years ahead with the class of 2018. My name is David Rubies Rivas, and I'm excited to represent you all as your Freshman UA Representative.
