Student Assembly President Josh Green '00 has joined the ranks of the Grateful Dead, the cast of South Park and Calvin and Hobbes.
At the most wired university in the country -- according to Yahoo Internet Life magazine -- you know you're important when a variation of BlitzMail has been dedicated to you.
JoshGreenMail is the work of Dave Parker '00 and Abe White '00, who collaborated to create it the night before Green was elected president of the Student Assembly.
But the 20-year-old economics major has more than e-mail on his mind.
He said this year he will try to achieve his biggest goal of having "as many people as possible say, 'I had the chance to speak my mind, and the Student Assembly actually made a difference.'"
A change of pace
Green said he will have a chance to meet members of the Class of 2002 when the Assembly coordinates Campus of Leadership Workshops, discussions of leadership in "diverse setting," and during its Conversations, "discussions of socially relevant issues."
"I think the '02s will be interested in how to make a difference at Dartmouth," he said.
Green said, this year, he hopes to address a lack of social programming space on campus, and he would like to cooperate with the new administration on improving parking, changing DarTalk and returning to Kiewit's policy of distributing printed papers on a continuous basis.
One of Green's other goals is increasing social integration among different segments of student body.
"Issues of race affect this campus, and I think those are issues that the Student Assembly shouldn't be afraid to deal with," he said.
