I am writing in support of Chandra Peterson and Jacob Wilson for the Government of the Student Body president and vice president.

I have personally had the privilege to work closely with Peterson and Wilson as the former president of Freshmen Council.

Their support for student organizations extends far beyond required office hours.

They are both extremely kind, genuine individuals.

Their superior knowledge of the inner workings of Iowa State and open interaction with various student organizations helped me tremendously when guiding Freshmen Council this past year.

Peterson was my first encounter with the Government of the Student Body, and she has had a positive, lasting impact on the way I view the representative student body today.  She was my inspiration for getting involved in student government and will be a role model inspiring future students to get involved at Iowa State.

Jamison Arends is a sophomore in logistics and supply chain management and former president of Freshmen Council.
