Hello Everyone. Thanks for liking our page for the coming year. I'm going to start councillor introductions so you all know a bit more about us. We look forward to hearing what you want from CUSA this year.
Name: Brett Parnell
E-mail: [email protected]
Program: Political Science (Concentrating in Canadian Politics) with a Minor in Law.
Year: 4th
Past or present roles on campus: Vice Head for frosh (present), FPA CUSA Councillor (2014-15) FPA Student Senator (2014-15), CASG Poli Sci Rep (2013-14).
Clubs: Carleton University Commonwealth Student Association (VP Internal), Israel Awareness Committee(Exec), Carleton Equal Voice Chapter, Carleton Conservatives (federal politics), Carleton Liberals (provincial politics)

Interests: Travel, politics, campus activities, and having new experiences.
What is something fun you are doing this summer: I am leaving Canada for a month to go to Israel, Budapest, Berlin, Paris, Normandy, London, Dublin, Manchester, Liverpool, and Vimy Ridge.
Why you ran for CUSA Council: I'm the only councillor who was re-elected for Public Affairs this year. Last year CUSA made great advancements towards my point of improving our ancillary fee structure, and I believe I have a lot more to offer to finish what we started.
What you hope to achieve on council: I want to improve accountability with our ancillary fees and make sure students in 2015 get to decide what they want to pay for, along with continuing with the great events, Carleton focused campaigns, and improved services we have seen in the past 3 years.
Please message or e-mail me if you want to bring anything to CUSA, and I can't wait to see you all at Frosh, where team 3 will obviously be the best.
