"Get to know other states. Know how they operate and how best to support them if you get elected. Don't rely solely on what you want to see change. Listen to others." --Brier

"Demonstrate you passion (and please, please don't show up 51 minutes late to Candidates' Open Forum)!" --Michael

"Discuss your intended office with the current officer. By doing this, you can obtain a better understanding of the work you would be doing and plans you could be making" --Hanna

(Communication Coordinators:) "Being tech savvy can help but it's not the make-it-or-break-it part of your job" --Jon

"It might at first seem daunting to meet so many new people, but don't be shy! JCLers are all really kind, and many of them are often interested in hearing about candidates' platforms." --Amanda

(Editors:) "Know how to use different applications other than the main platform (Joomag.com). The editor needs to know how to create digital content for the publication."

--Woojin

"When you run for office, you're going to be speaking in front of a large audience not once, but twice! Practice those speeches as much as you can in front of a mirror, friends, and family!" --Hannah
