...that’s where the HCC could potentially step in. “I find our Quincy HoCo much easier to work with than the UC,” Sharp says. “That being, if the HCC were to simply be like a point-man that groups like the Collective can notify and receive assistance from, then there’s no real downside to it. I think having the HCC support the Collective would be a big advantage for publicity and funding...
Their fourth pledge is to increase party and House Committee (HoCo) funding. This is Magnus and Tom’s answer to the question of how to approach social planning.

According to Mehta, Kadakia’s financial experience made him well-qualified to manage the senior class’s coffers. “For someone who has never had a chance to do UC or HoCo,” said Kadakia, referring to the Undergraduate Council and House Committees, “this is a great opportunity to get involved in the class, and I’m really excited right now.” In addition to their individual accomplishments, Moore said that Borden and Kadakia...
