Letter from Student Body President

Hello, my name is Emir Miranda, and I am your student government president. I’m a junior here at Western and I am majoring in political science. This is a scary time in your life, but it is also exciting. There are so many opportunities here at WIU. I joined Theta Chi as a freshman and it is solely because of that choice that I am standing in front of you today. Because of my activity in Fraternity and Sorority Life here on campus I have been gifted so many amazing leadership opportunities, friendships, and challenges that have helped me grow as a person. I cannot express how amazing FSL life is here on campus and I hope to see it grow even more. So if that’s something you’re interested in, find your people as I found mine. But if that’s not something you’re interested in, Western has so many amazing communities outside of FSL life as well. A perfect place to get out there and see those other organizations is the Student Org fair. My freshman year I didn’t go to the student org fair and that is a decision I regret, because having gone last year I saw how many amazing organizations are offered here on campus and even joined a few. College is only what you make of it and I know each of you have the potential to make your college experience great. The first step is just getting out there. If you ever have any trouble you can contact me at sgapresident@wiu.edu and if it's something I can help you with I will, thank you very much.
