UC Berkeley freshman Kailen Grottel-Brown is running independently for ASUC Senate based on his passion for public service and experience in ASUC and government offices and campaigns. 

Students often think of March and April as a time to take midterms, party over spring break and reluctantly come back to class the next week.

The ASUC Senate passed SR 21/22-019 in support of U.S. House Resolution 2590 and delivered committee and office updates Wednesday. 

Erupting in a mix of emotions across different countries, independent candidates won the majority of ASUC Senate seats for the second consecutive year, as announced during Saturday’s virtual tabulations ceremony.

Sammy Raucher, a UC Berkeley sophomore, is running independently for ASUC Senate on a platform centered around uplifting the queer/trans people of color, or QTPOC, community and promoting external advocacy, as well as improving accessibility and accountability in academics.
