Where their predecessors failed to generate any significant improvements in Harvard’s oft-bemoaned social scene, Chopra and Stannard-Friel promise to focus their energy on improving undergraduate social life, week in and week out.

Chopra and Stannard-Friel will also fight for student representation on the Administrative Board to bring it a measure of transparency and fairness...

Chopra and Stannard-Friel offer a reason for optimism after a dismal year for the council, and we are impressed with both the breadth of their vision and their formidable record of proven results. Regardless of the outcome, we urge all the candidates to pursue the improvements in undergraduate life that they have advocated. But one ticket can most effectively lead the council to make these improvements. The Crimson gives Rohit Chopra and Jessica Stannard-Friel its unqualified endorsement...
