Our campus is fractured, and the tension is visible—from the fences to the silence. One of the key goals of my campaign is to promote dialogue over division.

As someone studying Middle East Studies and leading Muslim Voice, I’ve worked to create space for honest, respectful conversations that challenge prejudice and promote understanding.

Past efforts to address campus climate have been short-lived or disconnected from students. I want to change that by building lasting partnerships between faculty and student organizations to host regular forums, panels, and teach-ins.

These programs will center student voices and foster long-term healing—removing not just physical barriers, but emotional ones too.

College campuses should be sanctuaries for free speech—places where ideas are tested, challenged, and reshaped. At GW, we must protect the right to speak across lines of difference, even when views are unpopular, while holding space for accountability.

As SGA President, I will create a Campus Expression Working Group to monitor free speech events, respond to discrimination or harassment with care and measured steps, and address the rise of cyberbullying through a dedicated subcommittee.

This group will also work to ensure students feel safe sharing honest views in class, even when those views challenge dominant ideologies. Free speech requires both courage and responsibility. Let’s make GW a model—not a battlefield.

At GW, many students face layered disadvantages—financial, academic, social, and spiritual—that our systems often overlook. Commuters spend hours traveling in unsafe conditions, missing out on campus life.

Others work demanding jobs because they missed Federal Work-Study deadlines or need more support. Student services like tutoring, writing help, and DSS are underfunded, and many identity-based orgs lack the resources they need. Dining is unaffordable for some, and religious observance isn’t well accommodated.

As SGA President, I’ll push for stronger support systems, more flexible academic policies, and data-driven reforms based on real student needs. We must listen—and act—to build a truly equitable campus. Let us Heal GW.

At GW, underfunding is everywhere—from limited tutoring resources to an overwhelmed DSS office and student orgs requesting far more funding than the $1.3 million budget allows.

Yet students have little idea where tuition money actually goes. The university’s transparency efforts have been vague and unhelpful, fueling concerns about misaligned priorities and broken trust. Despite this, financial transparency has been ignored by past SGAs—including a group I served on that was quietly dissolved without results.

As SGA President, I’ll revive that effort, gather student input, publish clear demands, and hold leadership accountable. We deserve to know how our money is spent. Let us Heal GW.
