Duke Environmental Alliance endorses Doytchinov for EVP

(03/06/13 11:08am)

Environmental Alliance endorses Nikolai Doytchinov for DSG executive vice president. We would like to commend Tre’ Scott* for his widespread involvement on campus and dedication to communication with students. However, we believe Doytchinov has the experience, ideas and focus important for the EVP position. His experience as the vice president of academic affairs and his past collaborations with other DSG members, administration and more, contribute to his capabilities as an EVP who will facilitate both internal and external communication and efficiency. In addition, Doytchinov is well-equipped for fulfilling his commitment to improving transparency on our campus. We were impressed by the clarity of his plans of action to achieve this goal, among many others, and are confident he will be a strong student voice for more responsible investment by the University. Finally, we were excited to hear his ideas on reducing Duke’s carbon footprint, including facilitating public transportation for students and advocating for more local and organic foods and composting facilities at our eateries. We believe Doytchinov is a candidate who offers an enthusiastic and balanced approach to the many interests of our diverse student body, and Environmental Alliance supports him for the position of EVP.


Duke Environmental Alliance endorses Bhutani for Young Trustee

(02/06/13 11:30am)

Duke Environmental Alliance enthusiastically endorses Gurdane Bhutani for Young Trustee. After meeting with all three candidates, it was clear that all three are highly qualified students who would make valuable contributions to the Board of Trustees. However, we feel that Gurdane is best suited to communicate to the Board not only the perspectives of Duke’s environmental community, but also those of our diverse undergraduate community as a whole.
