Meet the candidate: SCG presidential aspirant Briany Acosta is a ‘team player’

As Student Community Government [SCG] executive board elections near, candidates are preparing to run a fair race. Briany Acosta, the latest candidate interviewed by The Anchor, shared her goals for the 26-27 term and let readers know of some essential improvements she’d like to make happen in the coming year.

A political science major, vice president of RIC’s prelaw society and member of the political science club, Acosta is an ambitious candidate whose goal is to attend law school post-undergrad. A former member of her high school’s student government, Acosta committed to RIC and quickly knew she would find a home for her passions on SCG’s staff.
