\u201cI want everyone to be comfortable and just involve every culture, every person.\u201d Brar said. \u201cI just want something fun, trendy that everyone can connect with, you know, and just feel like it\u2019s like a safe space to open up, talk to new people, connect, and make friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hernandez, majoring in business administration said he has experience in fundraising as the business and finance club\u2019s treasurer.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy goals are to get more people to have more school spirit, because I think that\u2019s what a lot of people lack here, I just want them to be more proud and more showing off how they\u2019re proud of Fresno City College,\u201d Hernandez said.<\/p>\n

Ramirez is a political science major and cited her prior experience in leadership.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did it [leadership] all throughout high school,\u201d Ramirez said. \u201cI would love to take all of that experience and apply that here for our student body and see how we can better it as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biology major Christopher Naranjo said he was president of the student body at his high school before arriving at FCC.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really enjoy being involved in the campuses I\u2019m a part of, so that\u2019s kind of my motivation for joining the ASG here at Fresno City,\u201d Naranjo said.<\/p>\n

General and organic chemistry instructor, Rebecca Cherry, gave a powerpoint presentation detailing the SCFT demands and the State Center Community College District response.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Physics and astronomy instructor Michael Ragsdale delivered a condensed version of the\u00a0 SCFT negotiations <\/a>statement to students.<\/p>\n

The statement explained that faculty has been working without a contract for over a year, that a strike is historically unlikely but students are welcome to ask questions, attend board of trustee meetings<\/a> or join instructors at picketing events and encouraged students to do their own research on the topic.<\/p>\n
