The Case of the Candidates
UC Merced’s political sphere has long been a lesser-known feature of campus, and its participants are typically limited to those whose fields of study revolve around policy and law. But in the aftermath of a particularly tumultuous year and with elections in full swing, ASUCM has attracted the attention of more than just political science students.
Over the past week, the editorial staff of The Prestige has met with several ASUCM candidates to discuss their beliefs, goals, and hopes if they are elected into their position.
