GENERAL REPRESENTATIVES
Yasar Mohebi
Slate: Bruins United
Year: Third
Major: Psychobiology
uncontested
Study Abroad Re-orientation:
Progress was made
Mohebi’s office planned one event, which about 150 students attended, where international students and students who had already studied abroad spoke about their experiences for students considering studying abroad.
Harnessing the untapped power of UCLA computers to do life saving research:
Progress was made
Mohebi and his office approached several student groups, including the Pediatric AIDS Coalition, to encourage them to download a program called the World Community Grid. At least several group members downloaded the program. When the program is loaded to someone’s computer on sleep mode, it uses energy from the computer to calculate and send algorithms to researchers to help them with their research.
Increase Global Outreach Opportunites:
Goal was not accomplished
Mohebi and his office worked with One Heart Source, GlobeMed, Invisible Children, Inc., Amnesty International and the Afrikan Student Union to put on one event called “CAUSE this is Afrika” during winter quarter. The event gave students the opportunity to call the White House to ask the president to appoint a presidential envoy to lead the U.S. government in its response and to take action in the Eastern Congo.
Continue efforts to make UCLA a fair trade university:
Goal was accomplished
Mohebi and his office continued efforts to make UCLA a fair trade certified university. Mohebi worked with E3: Economy, Ecology, Equity to get UCLA four of the five badges to make UCLA an official fair trade university.
Conflict Free Campus Initiative:
Progress was made
Mohebi and his office wanted to get students involved in the Conflict Free Campus Initiative, which aims to pressure electronics companies to responsibly invest in Congo’s minerals sector. Mohebi’s office informed students about the issue and had students sign cards in support of the initiative. The cards will be used to encourage USAC officers to pass the initiative, which will be voted on on either April 23 or April 30.
Michael Starr
Sunset Recreation revitalization:
Goal was not accomplished
Starr held one movie event in fall quarter and put on a Stress-Free Day last week at the Sunset Canyon Recreation Center. He planned to hold a music festival earlier in the year, which fell through because it did not receive approval from the UCLA fire marshal.
Westwood revitalization:
Goal was not accomplished
Starr held one Bruins Night Out/Dank Deal event along with the Campus Events Commission and the Westwood Community Council in winter quarter. He planned to hold one in fall quarter, which fell through because he could not secure a free movie sneak preview. Bruins Night Out was already an established event. His office also created a database of information on businesses in Westwood, which Starr said he hopes to make available to students.
Athletics connections:
Goal was not accomplished
Starr aimed to showcase less popular UCLA sports and hold various student events at UCLA sports games. Starr’s office held one rally at a women’s volleyball game. He put on a viewing party for an away football game and a rally at a campout at Pauley Pavilion for a men’s basketball game, but football and basketball already have a large following from the student population on campus as opposed to the less popular sports Starr pledged to advocate for.
Bruin Confidential:
Goal was accomplished
Starr created a project that invited students to share their stories anonymously through a Tumblr page or by writing them out using a typewriter placed randomly on campus. The Cultural Affairs Commission co-programmed with Starr’s office to organize an art gallery event for the project.
Carly Yoshida
Slate: Bruins United
Year: Third
Major: English
uncontested
Keeping Sex Sexy: A Sexual Health and Safety Campaign:
Goal was accomplished
Yoshida’s office formed a student coalition with other organizations, which worked with the Campus Assault Resources and Education to put on a campus-wide health and safety campaign. Yoshida and her office secured $5,000 in funding for the coalition, put on a sexual health and safety training session and is currently programming a “Week of Sexy” this week.
Fitness webisodes:
Goal was accomplished
Yoshida’s office produced three fitness videos so far and plans to come out with one or two more.
BASIC Cooking Classes:
Goal was accomplished
Yoshida’s office has produced three instructional cooking videos. Yoshida initially planned to hold in-person classes, but the Student Wellness Commission and Cultural Affairs Commission already put on cultural cooking classes so Yoshida created new online classes to be more cost-effective and accessible.
Other accomplishments: Yoshida’s office co-sponsored and helped publicize two farmer’s markets per quarter this year with E3: Economy, Ecology, Equity and Associated Students UCLA. This was the first year the markets occurred regularly during the year and were consistently located in Bruin Plaza. The office also planned Stress-Free Days with the Academic Affairs Commission.
Correction: The author of the evaluations is Daily Bruin staff. Also, Lana Habib El-Farra’s office had a table to educate students about tenants’ rights at an apartments fair that the internal vice president’s office put on last quarter and made video updates about her office for students.
Haha, I wish this spoke to the value that their platforms had… two of Carly’s three platforms were about how she made youtube videos that no one cares about (not to mention cooking and fitness youtube videos already exist at much higher quality).
I can’t believe anyone would try to argue that the mental and physical and sexual health and wellness of our student population isn’t of utmost importance. You go Carly.
Mental and physical and sexual health is without a doubt important. But youtube video’s aren’t necessarily the most comprehensive and effective way to educate students or spread awareness about any issue, regardless of how important they are. Youtube videos should constitute the bulk of any office’s work…
shouldn’t* constitute
1) her youtube videos were geared specifically to UCLA students. if you watched them, you’d fully value how useful they were.
2) the bulk of her office was much more about her Sexual Health workshops and PROGRAMMING, which is a LOT of work. She did 6 Farmer’s Markets this year!
The farmers markets were done by E3. She may have booked the space and made sure her name was on it, but that doesn’t mean she put in work for it. Give credit where it’s due.
She sounds like Emily Resnick Jr. We tried it once already…
NEXT!!!!

Why does CAC get “Progress was made” for helping to play Pauley Pavilion Concert yet CEC gets “Goal was not accomplished” for helping plan Pauley Pavilion festivities? They were working on the same thing.
im guessing because CAC helped book artists/student groups for the event?
While this article is helpful in reminding the student body some of the platforms that student government had this year, I wish the Daily Bruin would show the actual worth of each council officer to the council table and the student body in general. It may be hard to capture, but I know some council officers work particularly harder than others (even though their platforms may have shown just “Progress was made” or yellow light.) I even know that some platforms were accomplished but haven’t finished because the quarter is not over, but the yellow light is not representative of the successful work some officers have done–it just shows whether or not the platform has been finished BEFORE the DB eval. If students are just looking at the lights, I don’t feel that this was truly illustrative of the work that was done. Maybe DB is unable to really know the work that these offices are doing, but it just sucks that the student body will make their assumptions on these lights.
FYI, EVP Office ALSO registered 6,234 students to vote when their initial goal was 5,000. We shouldn’t forget the ways in which students on our campus put in work to make change that extends beyond the UCLA bubble.
bruin democrats and bruin republicans and other political groups on campus would have managed to do it regardless. but good job evp for being a part of a greater collective effort.
the Republican Party’s candidate selection and the Truth Campaign honestly did most of the work here…
without the outrageousness of Mitt Romney’s PR and the media’s heavy sway, it probably would’ve been much harder to register as many students.
The EVP Office’s BruinsVOTE! Campaign registered 6,234 Bruins in only 2 months. The original goal was 5,000 students. Why is this not listed Daily Bruin, as usual your “reporting” is sucky…… #focusonanewprofession
my goal is to was to wake up this morning before 1p. i slammed that into the ground waking up at 12:45p!
Got to hand it to Lana Habib. She did everything and she STOPPED the radical Islamic extremists from pushing their agenda against Israel. She did this by removing the clause pertaining to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Hamas and the Pakistan lobby should not dictate what happens at such glorious universities. Thanks Lana for standing up for peace. Secularists, such as myself appreciate it.
She removed it because she thought she could get some of the resolution through if she did, not because she wanted to. Lets not forget what she put INTO the UCSA resolution, that showed her true colors
The UCSA resolution was voted by the entire Board of Directors, composed of students from every UC. Therefore, Lana was only ONE voice and ONE vote. You can’t dismiss the work that she has done on campus for something that a different entity voted for. Plus, she’s running for Internal Vice President, meaning she will be focusing on work on campus. Clearly, she has done a great job at engaging with the UCLA student body, and for this, she deserves the upmost credit for. Go Lana!
Mike Starr is running around campus telling students to not support the Bruin Diversity Initiative, filing complaints, spreading negativity, but clearly can’t even manage his own office. Dear Mike: before you try to step on other student’s initiatives, maybe you should work on your own first! Maybe if you spent half the time working on your platforms this year as you’ve spent trying to squash the initiative you would have been more effective. And this is not just targeted at Mike Starr, but to all of those running this year for office.
Hi Friend,
If you want to talk to me about my reasons for not supporting the Bruin Diversity Initiative. Feel free to contact me personally. If you want to talk about the successes of my office, feel free to contact me as well. My e-mail is uclastarr@gmail.com.
Thanks for the advice though, and clarifying that you aren’t just targeting me.
Hope to hear from you soon.
USAC constantly stresses creating transparency between the Council and the students who pay their fees to USAC. Those students who petitioned for the Bruin Diversity Initiative did so because they felt their communities and their concerns were at risk of not being heard. USAC should not stifle our voices as Bruins but rather echo them. Whether the initiative gets shot down or not during voting season, it is NOT the job of the Council to decide, let the results speak for themselves by ALL BRUINS of this university. In my opinion this is NOT what TRANSPARENCY looks like. And in response to the comment made regarding what the Daily Bruin perceived as your office’s shortcomings, why not be transparent and straightforward in an open forum? Why not let every single last one of us know exactly why you voted down the initiative and why you were unsuccessful in your platforms? What’s more interesting is that you received similar marks last year as USAC’s FC, for those out there who remember. Going back to transparency, this rings true for ALL USAC OFFICES, let us know why there was a discrepancy between what we voted for and what we received. And for those officers who disagree with what was said by the DB, perhaps you all need a better method of communication.
Transparency is not an issue exclusive to USAC council members. I cannot count how many times I saw students running around with a petition for the Bruin Diversity Initiative, presenting students with incomplete information and pressuring them to sign. I’d be interested to see how many students actually knew what they were signing on to.
I don’t recall them saying that transparency was exclusive to USAC council members. What they were saying is that the council members constantly stress wanting to create transparency on campus and when they have the opportunity to be transparent and explain themselves the line goes dead. As for the initiative, my question for you then is why are students signing a petition that you claim they know little to nothing about? It’s easy to blame everyone else but never direct blame at ourselves. It’s called self education.
First of all, I am NOT in favor of the Bruin Diversity Initiative. I think more work needs to be done to democratize the CPO. Plus, it is USAC’s responsibility to review and approve or not approve any referendums. That is the way it is written on the USAC constitution/bylaws. You cannot just claim that the students have a right to vote. This is the process, that is how systems of government work.
If you don’t like the membership of the councils, then your organizations should have done something to prevent it. It is the same organizations that want to push this referendum on the students, that broke way from the Students First! coalition. Had your previous leaders, many of which now work full time at CPO, worked with the other student leaders in the SF! coalition, then perhaps a BU majority would not be on Council. Perhaps you would have a friendlier Council to help you with your initiatives.
We shouldn’t only be criticizing Michael Starr. While, we can almost all agree that he was a horrible Gen Rep and a horrible Facilities Commissioner, we all know that Carly ONLY voted to put the referendum on the ballot because she was going to be running for President. She couldn’t begin her campaign already with enemies. So before any of the CPO leaders go ahead and claim she’s some kind of shero, please think about it. You’ve been fooled once, don’t be fooled again.
I’m confused how we went to talking about transparency and holding council members accountable to talking about the CPO…. Please, the attacks on CPO have become yesterday’s news, come up with something more original. The CPO has always had an open door and transparent policy. In the past two weeks I have seen multiple BU people getting tours.
Your logic about Students First! makes no sense and in case I suck at math, $.50 of the entire initiative goes to the CPO, out of a total $9.93. So lets stop the attack on CPO and focus on what this initiative is really about: improving diversity and campus climate.
And to the person who wrote earlier that students DONT have a right to vote on things, I think you may want to move or China or Cuba because their political philosophy seems to be more in line with yours. USAC can ammend its own election code, as it tried to do two weeks ago to move their Bruin bash referendum up higher on the ballot. How is that democratic when people in power can change the election code to benefit themselves and their friends? At the end of the day, 5000 students speak louder than 7 council members and allow students to have the final say.
Really? Is the SIAC, the CRC, CPOSA, and FITTED not a part of CPO? That’s a total of $3.75 total for the entities within the CPO department. Meanwhile, the other programs/departments/organizations only get $3.70. Clearly, the vast majority of funds are going directly into the CPO. Is this even legal for an official UCLA department to invest so many resources on an election?
Michael Starr is my favorite 🙂 All those sessions in the roof of Kerckhoff.
Why don’t you just tell us here? The rest of the community should hear what you have to say. For those who don’t support the Bruin Diversity Initiative, don’t complain when free printing or the test bank is gone. Funds go DIRECTLY TOWARDS PROGRAMS FOR STUDENTS.
I’m not sure what is required to have a goal accomplished rather than progress made. Jan Tancinco definitely went above and beyond with co-programming events this year which is evident in just this month’s events. Reaching out to a number of organizations including ORL, CAC, SWC, and Gen Rep 1, CEC has definitely had a successful year and this evaluation does not reflect that.
Yall are all HELLA weak anyways…put your name…transparency…we want to know where your comments are coming from. scary!!!
While I would love to add to the fire of all the arguments (great stuff here, really) I thought it would also be nice to highlight some of the irrefutable accomplishments DB covered in this article. Specifically, CSC under the leadership of Anees Hasnain. Major recognition should be going out to her for all the hard work she contributed during her tenure. While I am not really involved with a variety of community service-oriented activities on campus, I am very appreciative of all the work her office accomplished. I do not think there was any other office during this term that did as good of a job staying active both on campus and updating students via social media. Great job Anees!
