Abe Sutton

I’m Abe Sutton, and this past year I served as Academic Affairs director on the UA. In my term I brought up the number of syllabi posted on PennInTouch and partnered with student groups to recommend ways to increase faculty diversity such as grossing-up. I’ve worked with the Penn Publications Cooperative to improve Adobe InDesign access, with the Penn Society for International Development to make Penn among the first Universities to adopt a conflict mineral-free policy, and with Penn MSA to condemn profiling on the basis of religious affiliation. But the best part of working on these projects was the opportunity to both mentor other members and interact with students groups to find out what their goals were. It is for this reason that I am running for UA vice president, to work with student groups to promote collaboration and to create stronger ties between the UA and student groups.
