White smoke has risen from Satow tonight, as Whitney Green has been elected the new ESC President. Green, who succeeds Peter Valeiras, is the current secretary, and has also been GSSC liaison and a class council member. In her speech, Green spoke about she had worked with student groups to get their ideas implemented. Concerned with disconnect with students and alumni, said students want alumni advice, and alumni are more than willing to advise, but need better framework to contact and help each other, adding that ESC “is [her] heart.” More ESC election results as they come in.
UPDATE (11:29 PM): The new VP Intergroup will be Gunnar Aasen, who dropped into the VP Intergroup race after losing to Whitney for president.
UPDATE (12:28 AM): Kelly Chen will be the new VP for Policy.
UPDATE (1:23 AM): Chris Elizondo will be the new VP for Student Life.
UPDATE (2:12 AM): Heidi Ahmed will be the new secretary.

@seas 2011 love you and congrats heidi!! and no shes not related to him
@Alum08 To the people who wanted general elections, THIS is a success story for the current way ESC elections are run. The fact that you now have Whitney, someone who was so friggin’ dedicated to her school’s student life and spirit, as your president next year means a LOT.
On top of that, you had a strong rival running against her (Gunnar).
Sure, the board may elect members internally, but that doesn’t mean they elect them unfairly. Case in point: this year’s VP Student Life, who happens to be a 3-2 STUDENT!
How’s that for fairness? You show you can lead, you’ll be elected. Simple as that.
Congratulations, Whitney. You totally deserved it!!!
@bravo self-congratulations from council alums.
@Alum08 Hey douchebag, great to see you can’t read
@chris elizondo? really esc? really? does he do anything constructive?

@eww no. she had sex with rajat once.
@disillusioned what does this have to do with anything?
@i serously will have kelly chen’s babies any day of the week.
@good luck with that…
@wooooooo WHITNEY GREEN IS THE SHIT
so proud of her
@CONGRATULATIONS Greatly deserved. Whitney is one of the hardest-working people I know. And Nonsequitur does rock.
@wonderful I hope they revel in their secret meetings and feel really proud of their undemocratic system. I’m sure they’ll make fine University Administrators one day.
@not that bad To be fair, there is an open question and answer session for all candidates. Speeches are public. If you really care, get off your computer, come over here and ask questions with us.
@what are you doing On Bwog during elections?
@so what A question and answer session is pointless if it doesn’t come with the power of accountability that an election brings. When people tried to petition ESC to consider the subject of democratic elections, Liz Strauss voted to close the meeting and not allow the pro-democracy side to make their case.
@correction there are more ccsc alums in the administration than esc alums. get it right!
@yayyyy wooooooo whitneyyyyy
@[Insert obligatory bashing of student politician here. Include allusions to being overly ambitious backstabbers who do not have the school’s best interests at heart but rather their own and killing babies.]
@nah This isn’t CC. SEAS chooses their people the right way (undemocratically). Always seems to work out better than in CC…
@Woot! Whitney rocks my world!!
@YESSS!! OMG WHITNEY GREEN IS THE BEST!!! I AM SOO HAPPY!! Gunnar is awesome, but Whitney is so involved and amazingly talented!!!!!
CONGRATULATIONS WHITNEY!!!
