The announcements for Student Government Association hopefuls have kicked off…

Jacob Milich and Elaine Sarlo have officially announced their candidacy for University of Central Florida Student Body President and Vice President.

“After serving in the United States Marine Corps, I never could have imagined feeling such a strong loyalty and connection to another institution until I became a student at UCF,” Milich said in a Facebook post.

“When you love something you want to see it become the greatest version of itself, and it is for that reason that I am running for Student Body President,” Milich continued.

Milich is a business management major and his involvement on campus includes Senator for the College of Business Administration, President of Phi Delta Theta 2014-2015, Chairman of the Golden Rule Review Committee and Greek Campus Leader of the Year 2015.

Sarlo is a political science major and President of College Republicans, a sister of Alpha Xi Delta, Field Director for Americans for Prosperity, Communications Director for Paulson for Mayor and a field director for other multiple consulting firms.

The Jake & Elaine campaign is running on the following platforms:
-Advocacy
-Resources
-Representation
-Safety
-School pride
-Transparency
-Quality of life

The team is not affiliated with the Black and Gold Ticket or any SGA party. Jake & Elaine have chosen to be completely independent.

“We do not answer to any party, we only answer to the students,” Milich said.

Milich has already been fighting for a more transparent SGA as a Senator.

The SGA presidential candidate filed a resolution asking the state legislature to make clear that SGA records are not protected by FERPA. After his resolution was killed behind closed doors, Milich filed a court brief.

Voting will begin March 28-30 on MyUCF.
