He’s been an orientation leader and she’s been a citizen of Whoville. He’s been on a Jamaica Magis service trip, she’s been in Chicago. He’s been on the pitch, she’s been on the stage, and on Feb. 14, Michael Osaghae, MCAS ’20, and Tiffany Brooks, MCAS ’21, will be on the ballot running for president and executive vice president of the Undergraduate Government of Boston College (UGBC) on a platform of three Is: intentionality, innovation, and intersectionality.

As chair of the AHANA+ Leadership Council, Osaghae has been involved in a number of diversity-related initiatives, from the inception of DiversityEdu to the resolution passed in December in response to the University’s handling of racist vandalism. While he and Brooks are proud of the student body for coming together in a time of crisis, they think there’s a lot more work to be done.

The team has both short and long-term goals with tangible policy initiatives, but they want to begin with the first “I,” intentionality, which informs their approach to UGBC’s relationship with the administration.
