Biography

Daniela Bond

Hi! I’m Daniela (she/her/hers) and I’m a Junior majoring in Media Studies, minoring in Psychology. I’m so excited to be the Director of Title IX Advocacy which is a new position ASPC created this year. In this role, I work on issues of advocacy regarding Title IX, survivor support and preventative initiatives campus-wide. I’m also a member of President Starr’s Sexual Violence Intervention & Prevention (sVIP) Advisory Committee. In past semesters as an Advocate, I have worked extensively on supporting survivors directly, organizing events and improving access to the Heart Center (2nd floor of Walker Lounge!) As ASPC staff, I’m working more closely with administration and students to improve Pomona’s reporting and response procedures, ensuring that they are trauma-informed and survivor-centered.

Biography

Juliet Garner

As mental health director, I hope to advocate for the role of wellness in all we do at Pomona. I will devote time to sharing mental health resources with student leaders so that people feel not only aware but trusting of wellness avenues. As a wellness advocate on campus, I work with all mental health related groups and the administration so that we can collaborate. This collaboration focuses not only on events and campaigns but importantly, longer term policy and culture shifts. I hope to adapt this position according to student body needs, and encourage anyone with questions or suggestions to be in touch.

The secretary's position offers the ability to become directly involved in student government since it is directly under the president's staff! I'm hoping to be able to get a deeper understanding of how the student government works and what each of the student representatives are able to contribute to the overall campus climate. I am hoping to work with the president and other senators to be able to contribute to the discussion that happens around campus!

Biography

Laura Zhang

As the Senior Class President, I oversee the Senior Class Committee and sit on the Board of Trustees Honorary Degrees Committee (which selects the commencement speaker). Our first goal as the Senior Class Committee is to throw 3-4 large class bonding events per semester (i.e. Welcome Back, Mimosa Brunch, Skyspace Soiree), foster a sense of community within the senior class, and overall, make our last year as enjoyable as possible! Our second goal, is to encourage participation in the senior gift, and reach the ambitious goal of 100% participation! As our events are primarily social spaces, we will work hard to ensure that they are safe and welcoming for all to attend, and a potential platform for people to share broader announcements. We welcome any and all collaborations, and if you have any ideas for events that you would like to see happen, please contact us!
