MEET BEN

I am Ben Johnson, a junior Agriculture Leadership and Development major from Houston, Texas. As a candidate for Student Body President, I hope to earn your vote.

My campaign is centered around building upon the great traditions and opportunities that Texas A&M University provides and improving the Aggie Experience. As our university grows, it will be challenged in many ways. As students we can and should work with university leaders to build on past successes, so that future students will be as fortunate as we have been.

My time at Texas A&M has been everything I hoped and more. From the moment I stepped on campus as a student, I was accepted into a new family that has helped me become a better man. The Aggie Family has challenged me as a student and provided experiences that are helping prepare me for the journey that starts after graduation. I trust you feel the same way and want the Aggie Experience to be even better for those that follow us.

WHO HE IS

The Maroon & White Leadership Fellows / Society is a leadership certificate program that develops leadership skills through education and training so that participants are prepared to positively impact their communities and profession upon graduation. Ben served as the mentor recruitment chair and committee development chair.

Sigma Chi is a brotherhood committed to friendship, equal justice and learning for the benefit of communities in which members live and work. Ben has been a part of Sigma Chi since 2016.

Many friends and fellow students have encouraged me to run for Student Body President because of my experience with Fish Camp, LAUNCH, ASPIRE, Maroon & White Leadership, Student Senate, Study Abroad, Greek Life, Breakaway, and university committees like Student Rules and Regulations Committee and Student Leader Dialogue Committee. I understand the importance of a great Aggie Experience and have been working with fellow students, administrators, and alumni to improve our university.

The Build with Ben Campaign is focused on three strategic objectives:

  1. Continued improvement of the Aggie Experience;

  2. Continued improvement of prospective and current student inclusion initiatives; and

  3. Continued improvement of the student technological experience

 

The Aggie Experience is powerful, and it is shaping who we become and what we can accomplish when our time as students is completed. If elected, I promise to work with you and for you to serve the best interest of all students and the university we love.

If you are interested in learning more about the Build with Ben Campaign, I invite you to join our campaign, like us on Facebook, and follow us on Instagram and Twitter.
 

Thank you for your consideration. Gig ‘Em, and Build with Ben!
