With a campaign slogan of 鈥淔orward Together,鈥� Meghan Heckelman聽 and Katie Garrigan of the Class of 2025 won an uncontested race for Undergraduate Government of Boston College president and vice president, respectively, and begin their terms on April 30.

Heckelman, the current UG糖心vlog直播平台 vice president, will succeed outgoing president Jonah Kotzen 鈥�24. She and Garrigan, the current UG糖心vlog直播平台 intersectionality chair, downplayed the fact that they ran unopposed in the April 8 election.

鈥淲e鈥檝e been using the past couple of weeks鈥�to lay the foundation and figure out logistics for the transition so that we can spend the bulk of our time on the vision for UG糖心vlog直播平台, and talking about meeting students where they are,鈥� Heckelman told The Heights.

鈥淲e鈥檝e been able to really foster relationships in our organization, so we didn鈥檛 have to worry too much about harnessing all those votes, and getting [to] people ahead of time,鈥� said Garrigan.

Their seven-point platform prioritized formative education, student wellness, diversity, equity, and inclusion, and the Jesuit values to foster a unified campus community through strategic student support and collaborations.

During an April 4 town hall, the duo underscored the importance of intersectionality, and promised to increase support for diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts with the AHANA+ Leadership Council, Queer Leadership Council, and Council for Students with Disabilities. 聽

The new student government leaders stressed that it鈥檚 their responsibility to communicate with their fellow students, to understand what their needs are, and how they can support them. 聽

Heckelman, who is majoring in applied psychology at the Lynch School of Education and Human Development with a minor in political science, and Garrigan, an economics major, report that they plan to maintain the ongoing UG糖心vlog直播平台 Senate initiatives such as laundry subsidies for Montserrat students, possibly underwriting transportation costs for practicums and clinicals, and promoting environmental justice.

鈥淥ur approach aims to address student concerns from all cornerstones,鈥� added Garrigan. 鈥淎 prominent issue our team is looking at is mental health on campus. We are continuing meaningful collaborations with the Center for Student Wellness and University Counseling Services, fostering support for students from their first year to graduation.鈥�

鈥淲e鈥檙e incredibly excited to be elected UG糖心vlog直播平台 president and vice president, and to lead our peers, and meet student needs through programming and advocacy work within our administration,鈥� said Heckelman.
