Duke MSA endorses Riyanka Ganguly for DSG President
After meeting with the three candidates for Duke Student Government President, the Duke Muslim Students’ Association has voted to endorse Riyanka Ganguly. We were inspired by Riyanka’s commitment to inclusivity and outreach, as evidenced by her work in changing the Duke policy on undocumented students and securing free menstrual products in the Bryan Center. Even though she herself is a minority, the passion with which she strives to understand other marginalized groups is empowering. Riyanka accurately depicts DSG as a group that is not representative of the vast diversity within Duke’s student body, and her plans to address this issue are detailed and well-thought out. Lastly, we believe Riyanka’s commitment to advocacy with student groups and her promise to work with President Price on drafting new policies considering minority students shows her determination to fight for students like us.
