DHRUV MURTHY

About Dhruv

I want to be a student affairs senator because I am built different. I used to be down bad back in the day but then I decided to get my life together, hitting the gym, hitting the books, bumping that NAV and Olivia Rodrigo, and watching Outer Banks. I want to use some of the experience I gained in order to help vouch for students and their experiences in this school. I am a sophomore who likes playing basketball, listening to music etc. Have a blessed year.

JONATHAN HEZEL

About Jonathan

My name is Jonathan Hezel, I’m a political science major. I’m very interested in running for one of the ten positions SGA has to offer. I’m trying to break out of my introverted shell, so that’s why I’m here. I’m a very dedicated student who will never settle for mediocrity. Law school is on my horizon, so I’m trying to get involved in wonderful clubs like Student Government. I’m currently in the Blue Hen Leadership Program which will assist me in becoming a better leader. Running for an SGA is going to be pretty stressful for an introvert like myself, but I believe that I’m up for the challenge.

SHIVAM PATHAK

About Shivam

Hello! My name is Shivam Pathak, and I am currently a sophomore here at UD. During my first year of being a Student Affairs Senator, I was granted an opportunity of being a liaison between the student body and the UD administration. I helped organize student body townhalls where students received answers regarding university policies directly from the UD administration. Additionally, I along with my senate team raised awareness about changes on campus regarding social injustices. Today I ask that you give me another opportunity to serve as your Student Affairs Senator once again. I assure you that your voice will be heard, and that change will occur, so why wait? Be bright and re-elect Shivam Pathak.

I can ensure that my enthusiasm will bring out the best possible outcomes for this school; my drive never fails when it comes to bringing about genuinely desired change.  Thank you for your time and support.

MEGAN TARR*

About Megan

Hi, my name is Megan Tarr, and I’m a freshman biology major in the Honors College from Middletown, Delaware. I have loved my time at UD so far, and am currently involved in Club Track and Cross Country, the Medical and Molecular Sciences Club, and the Outing Club. I’m super excited to join SGA at UD, and truly want to motivate and advocate for those I would be representing as the Honors College Senator, specifically in terms of academic success and career opportunities. By helping connect students to internships and partnerships with faculty and companies, as well as providing the necessary resources to assist students in achieving their goals in classes, we can work together to create a supportive, collaborative environment in the Honors College.
