Candidate Statement (2010)
Hey all you sexy College kids! (Oh, and that ugly one too…) My name is Zeke Sexauer. Yes, it’s pronounced, “sex hour.” And yes, I did get a lot of crap for it when I was little. But now’s not the time to joke about surnames. Right now I want to talk to you about re-electing me to the Undergraduate Assembly. I’m hardworking, organized, and friendly, and my mom says I’m special, so I mean, like, what more could you ask for? Plus, I already have a year of UA experience under my belt. I had a great time working on the UA last year and I would love the chance to continue working to improve your life at Penn this next year. So vote for me, Zeke Sexauer, for UA College Representative. The hour for Sexauer is now!
