Our mission - Andy Zhang and Haritha Subramanian

We decided to run for USG President and Vice President because we believe in a student government that works for every student—not just in name, but in action. Too often, student organizations struggle with funding barriers, university policies don’t reflect student needs, and USG operates reactively rather than proactively. Too often, students feel unsafe and unwelcome on their own campus and struggle to access & afford basic needs from housing and physical/mental health services to menstrual products and nutritious food.

We are running to change that. Our campaign is built on the belief that student government should be equitable, responsive, and impactful and serve as a bridge between our peers and administration. In our current political climate, this is more important than ever. With our combined experience in student leadership, policy advocacy, and community organizing, we are ready to make USG a stronger advocate for students and a more effective force for change at UConn.
