Special ASFA By-Election Report - Katie Brioux for VP Communications and Promotions

She may be a rookie on the Concordia political scene but it’s not like Katie Brioux is new to the trade.

She is a fourth year specialization in Communications and Graphics Editor at the Concordian Newspaper.

She will try and take her art and communications skills to be the next Arts and Science Vice President of Communications and Promotions.

“Because I work at a newspaper, I’ve grown to be accustomed to and all I really want to do is be more involved and get more hands on and sort of help the school even better. Not just by doing cool cartoons anymore but by advertising real things and by making it more well known.”

If elected, Katie has a plan to bring promoting events down to a more personal level.

“Sort of a fun idea I thought of was to have video blogs. News video vlogs if you will of basically me just being like hey guys these are the events coming up you should totally participate its going to be amazing. Here are some meetings coming up there’s going to be be really cool speakers… blah blah blah. Just some really cool things happening that ASFA organizes because ASFA is always on top of those really cool things.”

Katie hopes that her communications background will give her a leg up on opponent Alexis Suzuki.

Polls are open to Arts and Science students on October 12^th and 13^th.
