The 8th Student Senate concluded its election last Thursday. On the following Friday, 21 student senators were sworn in their new posts in B408, Business/Management Building.

The student who held the highest record in the election is Mr. You Tung-yeh who grossed a total of 149 ballots. When You learned the tremendous result, he expressed so much gratitude to his supporters. A member of the Harmonica and the Astrology Club, You said there are even people from other colleges to ask about his election outcome. “I was really impressed.” He said. Of course, he declared he would try his best to be a good Senator.

After the election, the Student Election Committee counted the “good” ballots, and there are altogether 2265 of them. A healthy phenomenon, the Execution Secretary of the Committee declared, because it shows that TKU students are beginning to be more aware of the self-rule in an autonomous government.

We really should be proud of such a change of trend in TKU student population.
