All-School Cultural Union Vice President

Destiney Williamson, Class of 2021

What new ideas would you bring to the table? What is your main goal?

An idea I want to be implemented is bringing back a spring fling! That is something my grade and the grades below me have never experienced and want back. Also, I would want to implement a better social media presence for StudCo and the Lab community because I feel that could be really helpful. Some goals I have are trying to implement student voice better into the dances through music or theme recommendations for dances and events as well as getting higher attendance to the dances.

How will you act as a liaison between students and faculty?

I will listen to what students have to say and set up meetings and discussions to be able to share any ideas or constructive criticism. 

What kind of school culture do you hope to see? How will you work to create it?

The kind of school culture I hope to see is to actually have students excited about school activities and the dances. I hope to do this by attempting to up the hype by talking to students about their ideas and increasing advertisement. Also, by bringing incentives for spirit weeks leading up to big dances.

How will you work to make U-High a stress-free environment?

We all know that U-High will never be stress-free, but I hope to be able to minimize this stress by talking to teachers and administrators when students feel increasingly overwhelmed by workload and continue with student feedback forms to help students communicate directly with their teachers.

How do you plan to enhance the student body’s engagement in school activities?

As I said previously, by talking with students and having a better communication system between stud co and the whole student body. Also, I hope to have a greater social media presence to help strengthen that communication.
