    Election Week with Joselyn @Inter.UvA

    Hola. My name is Joselyn Moran and I am (technically) a second-year psychology student. I am running to represent you in the FMG student council. During my first year of being at the UvA I saw so many frustrated students and I thought "there must be something we can do." I found out about the student council during the second semester of my first year and I have been part of the student council as a council assistant during this year. In my role this year, I have gained so much experience and I am ready to use this knowledge to get students involved,  fight for a less euro-centric curriculum, and increase student well-being and mental health.
