Hello fellow Toreros!!

My name is Marion Chavarria Rivera, and I am so thrilled to be serving as your 2019-2020 Associated Student Government President!!

I am going into my fourth year at USD as a Biology and Spanish major, with a minor in Chemistry. Over the years, I have been a part of several different parts of USD. This last year I was the co-chair for the 24th Annual Chicanx/Latinx Graduate Recognition Ceremony, along with this year’s ASG Chief of Staff, as well as the Manchester Senator for ASG. I previously worked in the Women’s Commons as a programmer and helped in creating the first annual Women of Color Summit. I have been a part of Torero Ambassadors, SOAR and OSA, welcoming potential new students to USD. The last two years I have served as part of the Supreme Drag Superstar Committee, as well as have been a strong advocate for PeeInPeace, an initiative pushing for all-gender restrooms on campus.

Being a part of so many different sections of USD, some listed above and others not, has really given me a unique perspective into how different groups of students see USD and their experience here. This along with my own experiences at USD, gave me the push to run for ASG president as I wanted to help mold this university into a place where every student regardless of their race, gender, sexual orientation, citizenship, or any other identity they may hold, feel welcomed and most importantly, safe. My hopes in running for president was to be able to use this platform to elevate the voices of the entire student body and help create a conversation on what ASG and USD as a whole can do to make sure the experience of every student here is a positive one.

One of my goals as president is to be able to connect with the student body as much as possible. I want to hear what you all have to say, and what you want to see done or enacted within ASG and USD as a whole. And I hope to carry those thoughts and perspectives with me with every decision I make. I’m extremely excited to see what this year has to bring and to see the change that we, as a whole, can make!

Greeting my Torero Brothers and Sisters!!

My name is Greyson Taylor and I have the privilege of serving as your Vice President for the 2019-2020 academic year!

I am currently a senior philosophy and political science double major, originally from Los Angeles. Throughout my time at USD I’ve had my hand in numerous different things. My freshman year I was a member of ASG, serving as the Residential Senator for Maher Hall. I additionally was a part of Torero Ambassadors, representing our campus as a Torero Tour Guide. I am also a proud member of USD Greek Life, specifically Delta Tau Delta Fraternity. Where I have served as Risk Manager, and currently hold the position of Internal Vice President. 

I decided to take this position of Vice President, to put it simply, give back to the USD community. USD has not only provided me with the opportunity to receive multiple degrees from a prestigious university, something that I would not have had the opportunity to do if it were not for USD’s generous financial aid, but it has also given me the guidance I needed to come to know myself. All while giving me a place to meet people, and build relationships that will last throughout my lifetime. It is for these things, and the countless other blessings that USD has bestowed upon me that I felt called during my final year to give back to the community that has already given so much to me. It is with this that I believe there is no better way to give back, than through service. It is for this reason that my ultimate goal as Vice President is to serve the USD community, namely its student body. 

As your elected representative, I understand that I represent more than just my voice and ideals. Therefore, I plan to be committed to seeking out and listening to the student’s voice. What are the top three things that you would like to see improved at USD? What is one issue pertaining to academic affairs that you feel needs to be addressed? Such questions will not only allow the students to use their voice, but also allow me to identify the interests that are most important to the students. I understand that college is difficult and USD can be academically challenging, my mission is to find ways to make life better for the students so that they may have an increased opportunity for success. Some issues that I seek to continue and champion are, the lowering or subsidization of overall campus pricing, and the continuation of our textbook accessibility program. 

At the end of the day, all I seek is to serve the interests of current USD students well, and I look forward to the privilege of being able to embark on this journey with you all!
