As a UA representative I want to focus on improving upon the Penn traditions that we already have, as well as starting new traditions that can stand as legacies for our class. The first tradition I want to begin addresses an issue of immediate concern, Thanksgiving. Many domestic students and international students are not going home for the break and will stay on campus. As of now there is no official Penn Thanksgiving event. I would like to create “Thanksgiving Dinner with your Penn Family”; an event with catered food hosted in Houston Hall and attended by students and faculty alike who’ve remained on campus for the holiday. One tradition I want to improve upon is Econ Scream. I believe installing microphones that record how loud we scream will make the event more exciting, and add competition as to who can be the loudest class for years to come.
