Meet your DSG officials Matthew Slovik for Facilities and Athletics

C.J. Walsh

Vice President

President Walsh is the chief liaison between the undergraduate student body and the administration. The senior, former CEO of Devil’s Delivery Service, says he plans to bring his business sense to student government. Prior to his election, Walsh had virtually no DSG experience, serving as one of two students on the Upperclass Residential Life Review Committee. But he says his experiences outside DSG will help him bring a fresh approach to the job. Walsh has already begun making changes. The Legislature will now hold weekly meetings, as opposed to the traditional biweekly meetings. In addition, Walsh hopes cabinet members will serve on legislative committees, something they were previously not required to do.

The senior will run Legislature meetings and supervise legislators on their individual projects. A longtime DSG veteran, Ensign took his position mid-year, after senior Daryn Dodson resigned and was reelected in the spring.

The 11-member organization Eng leads allocates about $400,000 annually to various student organizations, ranging from student clubs to intramural sports. The money comes from a fee students pay at the beginning of each academic year. Eng, a junior, was appointed by former president Jordan Bazinsky, after then-SOFC chair Drew Ensign took over as executive vice president.

Carrie Johnson Vice President for Community Interaction

Jean-Baptiste is a liaison between administrators and undergraduates on student-related issues. The junior hopes to focus on changing the University’s social atmosphere, in light of the recently revised alcohol policy. He has served as Craven Quadrangle president and is an active member of
