Manisha is a second year majoring in Anthropology and English. Apart from her ASSU responsibilities, she runs a skin cancer awareness nonprofit, conducts dermatology research in a lab, and competes in swing dancing tournaments. Her main priorities during the 2011-2012 term are to develop a research opportunities database and to implement an interactive calendar with all course union events on the ASSU website. Manisha also seeks to establish a mentor programme for first years and final years, implement an anti-Calendar Orientation Day before frosh week, start a professor-to-student email responsiveness initiative, and host a free, end-of-year party to facilitate interdisciplinary course union interaction. Manisha is eager to ensure that the ideas and concerns of all students are not only heard but also implemented. To that end, feel free to email manisha.kaura@utoronto.ca with ideas and suggestions.

Onaizah is looking forward to putting her energy into her new position as treasurer to help create a rewarding year for ASSU, its course unions and the whole Arts and Science undergraduate community.
