My name is Mackenzie Jarvin, I am a third-year Environmental Sciences student and I am running to be your Vice President Academic and External. During the 2017-2018 academic year, I had the privilege of holding the position of Councillor, and I am the current Science Senator on Students’ Representative Council. I have had the opportunity to sit on University Senate as well, and a few of its committees. Being Councillor and Science Senator has provided me experience working for the ASU and has prepared me to take on this role. I have created and collaborated on numerous programs, with a specific focus on emotional support. Now, it is my goal if I were elected as VP Academic & External to achieve the following –
Academic-related:
* Encourage the “W” date to be further delayed to near the end of semester
* Ensure the VP Academic & External position is advertised to students, and what assistance can be provided
Externally:
* Work alongside the Canadian Alliance of Student Associations (CASA) on their “Get out the Vote” campaign, to urge students to exercise their right to vote in the upcoming federal election
* Assist StudentsNS in advocating for MSI coverage for international students upon their arrival
It would be an honour to continue representing student needs and concerns. For the students, vote Mackenzie Jarvin for Vice President Academic and External. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. Thank you, Acadia!

Vice President Academic & External: Madeline Johnson
My name is Madeline Johnson and I am in my second year of my undergrad as a Psychology major. Throughout my life I have been heavily involved in various student councils and in leadership roles. Most recently, I have been in the role of Vice President Events on the Chase Court House Council Executive. As students of Acadia, you work hard to be here, and I want to help make your academic experience as successful and fulfilling as possible. I hope to continue working with other external institutions across Nova Scotia as well as the country to keep reaching to new heights in improving mental health resources on campus. I also hope to provide students with resources so they can efficiently plan their courses for future semesters, giving high school students more information about courses as well as creating more reservable study spaces on campus in buildings other than the library. Facilitating a transparent and thorough conversation between both students and external institutions is also very important to me. Education gives you options and I want to help you get the results and the most out of your academic years at Acadia.
