Profile: Treasurer

The Treasurer has one mandate: making sure the Cube has enough money to throw awesome events. They’re responsible for balancing the sheets, preparing budgets for the AMS/SUS/AUS, and making sure no Cube committee spends too much money. They’re also responsible for the sale of Cube merchandise like the hoodies. And finally, they’re the go-to person if any officer needs help communicating with the AMS.

This position requires someone who has a keen financial mind and an obsessive eye for detail. As Cube committees will often ask monetary questions at the last minute, the Treasurer needs to be constantly on-the-ball. Being able to promptly answer such pressing questions as, “How much have we spent so far?”, “How much do we have left in our accounts?”, and “How much can we afford to spend on this event?” is a sign of a Treasurer doing his/her job well.

Profile: VP External

The VP External is responsible for communicating with companies and organizing the Tech Career Fair—a hefty task. The VPX must be professional and aggressive in convincing companies to come to the Career Fair, and be willing to take calls from companies at any hour in the weeks leading up to the big event. It’s not an easy task when many companies aren’t looking to hire. Not only is the Career Fair important for students looking for a job, but funds raised through the Career Fair go directly to CSSS-funded events like the annual boat cruise. No Career Fair—no boat cruise.

Candidates:

  • Mubashshir Zakir
  • Jeremiah Tantongco (A* Party)
