Student council

The Indiana Association of Student Council, or IASC, is more than a statewide program for all the student councils within Indiana. IASC upholds the pillars of Inspiration, Action, Service, and Character, transforming ordinary students into remarkable leaders through the amazing conventions and camps they hold annually. I, Phillip Phan, am fortunate to be elected as a Northeast District Representative for the IASC Executive Committee. Being a part this committee has been life-changing thus far, in a similar SLI, or Student Leadership Institute, was this past summer. This picture of my family from SLI symbolizes the changes I have made as a camper, as a leader, as a person. Many students have the wrong perceptions of student council: it is for popular kids, it looks good on a college resume, the student body does not care about me. I was not the class president, the star athlete, or even popular. I once fell victims to these beliefs. I ran for a position on East Noble’s Student Council, with the same ambiguous mindset, and I was fortunate…

in schools, for example. And the most sought-after position, is president. Although both presidential positions in both school systems and the federal government have similarities ultimately, they are different in many ways. One of the main differences between the U.S president and a student council president is that the student council president isn’t running the whole country during their term. This makes a difference in how much of a difference they make during their term. While President,…

into the Kelley School of Business and my future was decided; however, three days before I started classes at IUPUI, I realized that making an excess amount of money was not what was important to me. I wanted to help people. I had gotten so caught up in the greed around me that I forgot who I was. On a whim, I called the School of Public and Environmental Affairs (SPEA) and changed my major to Criminal Justice. I decided to pursue a career in Victim Advocacy and fight for the people that could…

a member of Student Council, NHS, golf, basketball, and on the softball team. All of these clubs and activities have taught me a lot but none have taught me what student council has. Through student council I have learned what it truly means to be selfless. Through Fight for Life we are taught what it means to be selfless; we watch our advisors give up all of their free time to make Fight for Life happen. We also witness our fellow peers and teachers do the same. Without Student Council, I…
