Hi everyone, I am Rudraksh Sharma, a fellow first year at Carleton University. I am in the Bachelors in Comp Sci Program with an AI/ML Stream and am running for First Year Computer Science Rep!!
Now, I won’t ask for your votes (well not in the way everyone else does it), but rather, I just want some of your valuable time. Time, to read this and understand the vision I hold for our First Year memories that are yet to be made. Time, to communicate and let me know if there are changes you want to make in my plans, and then at last, time, to vote, only if you consider my ideas to be fruitful and interesting.
The reasons that you should vote for me (not to brag or anything), are many, but, rather than me going on for days on days, I would just list some of my ideas in a nutshell below –
A platform for us to showcase our hidden talents — from music and dance to stand-up and spoken word or even your own coded fun projects. At the end, one performer will be crowned Fresher of the Year! There will be music, a chill place to hang out with friends, and LOADS of good vibes.
Whether it’s a Discord or group chat, I’ll create a space where first-years can stay connected, share resources, ask questions, and build friendships outside the classroom.
Fresher’s mixers that will be arranged at places all over the campus with engaging games to get to know each other better and know people from our own program to chill out with and make connections with.
Have doubts that need to be cleared? Or just don’t know what to do in that one assignment? You can ask the seniors who have been through the same classes just a year or few ago and get their opinions on your codes/problems!!
I’ll organise outdoor walks, sports tournaments and picnics whenever the weather suits it, so that everyone can chill and enjoy their time here at Carleton.
