Today we saw our share of CCSC election controversy, but the E-board race has not been stirred too much.
Now that policy can be discussed, however, more substance has emerged from the Krebs and Damooei camps. Damooei seems to have taken the lead in the multimedia department, already having released five videos on Youtube. Expect a Krebs video later in the week. There is a quick breakdown of some of the party priorities after the jump.
Alidad (Connect Columbia)
- Working to actively bring in student groups.
- Revamp Lerner 6 for student space
- Get satellite gyms for Shapiro and Broadway
- Favorite HamDel sandwich: Grilled Cheese
George (Experience Columbia)
- Increase transparency in CCSC by publishing meeting records and the funding process.
- Reinvigorate CC spirit by spicing up Hamilton, CC’s flagship building.
- Have a convenient student page (like UPenn’s) that accesses relevant pages for students.
- Favorite HamDel sandwich: Grilled Chicken #5

@Anonymous I am voting on the SERIOUS ISSUES in this election like the important and controversial topic of “whether or not you link to dirty Urban Dictionary entries from your website.” I am not sure whether I think it is bad or good yet, but once I decide, I will feel STRONGLY and MY VOICE WILL BE HEARD!
@anonymous ii i am not sure whether i think it is bad or good yet, but once i decide, godzilla will kill me and my family.
@Eh... #12, #17 — I found it amusing. You’re never too old for crude humor. (Right?)
@Didn't Alidad promise the same things on the One Columbia ticket last year? Shouldn’t these things have been taken care of already?
@dsfas i heard that the penises of the two leaders (krebs and damooei) spiral into the sky and intertwine in a fiery ecstasy somewhere above 40,000 ft.
@interesting one of Krebs’ cohorts, Ian, was on Made: http://www.dailyrecord.com/news/dayinthelife/randolphHS/classof05.html
@nice two more tickets straight out of the burger king kids club. just once i’d like a ticket of all asian males.
@god damnit that downtime was unacceptable.
i was about to post my most brilliant comment ever, a witty quip about the races in starcraft, and how i always preferred protoss and terran over zerg.
fuck. vanity of vanity. all is vanity.
@cyang I disagree with both parties on the sandwich issue.
@columbia Go Alidad!
@admission I am favorably impressed.
@It's funny that Krebs ticket has the word experience in it (even if not meant in that way)since his ticket clearly has far less experience than Alidad’s.
@Jeff Julian FOR PRESIDENT!
@Sadia “Working to actively bring in student groups.”
That’s really ambiguous.
Also, I love the Experience Columbia Passport/CON+ACT idea – I know only a small number of our population even cares, but it’s an actual tangible way to show student group support.
@Read the actual platform. It’s very compelling. I’m confused about who to vote for.
@ok Sadia you sound so fake. why try so hard?
@Sadia You’re right. It sounded fake. I forgot that at the end of the day, CCSC is really not part of my Columbia experience. So, I will go back to my regularly scheduled apathy. Truly, I just really liked the use of the plus sign – CON+ACT.
As a rising senior, I just want to have fun.
Oh, and # 12 – totally agree.
@look! on connect columbia’s site, the first item in their “hot off the presses” section is a piece about adil’s rule violation. not wasting any time…
@also tacky.
@... Not as tacky as the link to urban dictionary for “froggie style” on George’s “multimedia” page
Kinda childish middle school humor if you ask me
