What are some goals and/or initiatives you are excited to work on this term? First, one of my initiatives/goals is to share many valuable resources with international students. Some resources could really be helpful, but I realized that many international students do not know they exist. I would like to promote these resources to international students. Second, I am working to promote the ISSE Space for international students and any other spaces on campus that they can use. Third, I will work closely with the ISSS office, ISSE, and ISAB to better understand concerns and challenges, and I want to advocate for international students. For ISAB, I am working on a project with them, and if any funding is needed for the project, I will work to secure it as well. Fourth, I will also work to support and advocate for mental health, ensuring that international students can easily access mental health resources. Fifth, another goal is to help secure funding for international organizations to support their communities.
