(Izquierda a Derecha) Senadora de ASG Vrinda Vrinda, Consejera de Interclubes Myrna Reyes González, Representante Estudiantil Srishti Saini, Presidenta Nassiba Agbere y Vicepresidente David Ball discuten con los otros miembros de la Cámara de Senado durante su reunión semanal el 25 de marzo de 2025.

El Gobierno Estudiantil Asociado (ASG) está aceptando solicitudes para nuevos candidatos en Fresno City College. Desde el 12 de marzo hasta el 4 de abril, los estudiantes pueden presentar una solicitud en línea o en persona en la oficina de ASG, ubicada sobre la librería en el edificio SC-205.

Ser miembro de ASG es una oportunidad para generar cambios positivos en la vida de los estudiantes en el campus.

Como miembro, los estudiantes contribuirán siendo la voz del alumnado y abogando por sus necesidades.

Nassiba Agbere, presidenta de ASG, afirmó que el próximo presidente de ASG debe sentir pasión por su comunidad.

“Entiendo que eres estudiante ante todo, pero también se trata de asistir a todos los eventos que tenemos en el campus o fuera de él. Eso es representar a FCC”, dijo Agbere.

El senador de ASG, Gabriel Echeveste, comparte que al formar parte de ASG, representan a los estudiantes y a la comunidad.

“Es una gran manera de atender sus necesidades y ayudarlos en lo que podamos”, dijo Echeveste.

Además de la defensa de los estudiantes y el liderazgo, formar parte de ASG brinda oportunidades. Echeveste expresa que “si los estudiantes solicitan ingresar a ASG y lo tienen en su historial, tienen una mayor posibilidad de transferirse a una universidad más prestigiosa y obtener becas.”

Aunque hay algunos requisitos para unirse a ASG, Echeveste comparte algunos consejos para los nuevos estudiantes interesados en postularse.

“Cualquiera puede postularse, pero asegúrate de ser conocido en los comités”, comentó Echeveste.

Él enfatiza que el cuerpo estudiantil tiene muchos votantes en varios clubes y comunidades, por lo que es importante darse a conocer entre ellos.

“Si te conocen como persona, es más probable que quieran votar por ti”, dijo Echeveste.

Echeveste menciona que la mayoría de los solicitantes de ASG provienen de estudiantes involucrados en comités y clubes.

“Por lo general, son los estudiantes que más se preocupan por lo que sucede en el campus”, señaló Echeveste.

Además, Echeveste anima a todos los estudiantes a unirse. “Somos muy inclusivos y nos encanta tener una cámara diversa”.

Agbere menciona que ser presidente no solo ayuda en el ámbito profesional, sino también en el crecimiento personal.

“Tal vez si no eres bueno en un área, como hablar en público, mejorarás en eso”, dijo Agbere.

Agbere también destacó que esta es una gran oportunidad para aprender sobre política actual, regulaciones, políticas y leyes que afectan a la comunidad.

Los requisitos para unirse a ASG son mantener un GPA acumulativo de 2.0, estar inscrito en al menos 6 unidades y tener disponibilidad para una reunión semanal todos los martes de 3:00 p.m. a 5:00 p.m.

Pamela Martinez, Reporter

Pamela Martinez is a 24-year-old journalism major from Kerman, California with a deep passion for music and journalism. This is her second semester at Fresno City College and she hopes to transfer to Fresno State to obtain a degree in Journalism. From a young age, Pamela always knew that she had a love for music. She grew up in a family who not only appreciated the music but engaged in it. It was only a matter of time before she decided to pick up an instrument which led her to play an assortment from elementary school all the way throughout highschool. However, somewhere in the midst of all the music she found her love for writing. As a child, her strongest subject in school was always writing. At the age of 14, she began writing short stories on an app called Wattpad which gained thousands of reads which encouraged her to take writing seriously. One day she hopes to be a novelist, but for right now her main focus is to become a music journalist who interviews bands and musicians of all genres. When she’s not going to concerts or writing, you can find her playing video games. She plays many video games including Stardew Valley, Dead by Daylight, and League of Legends. She believes video games are a great way to spend time with friends and unwind. Some more hobbies include watching horror movies and doing special effects makeup. She also loves to travel the country with her boyfriend Hunter and her 8-year-old Shih-Tzu named baby.

Angelina Alatorre-Amaya, Reporter

Angelina Alatorre-Amaya is 19 years old, and will be turning 20 in February. Angelina was born and raised in Fresno, California. This is her second year of college and she is majoring in journalism. Some of her previous experience with writing includes taking a journalism class during the fall semester. She hopes to gain more experience with writing and grow her confidence in it too. Angelina is a kind and caring person who enjoys spending time with her friends and family. She loves to travel, she has been to Mexico, Oregon, Nevada, and many places throughout California. She hopes to go to other countries like South Korea, Japan, and Singapore in the future. She loves learning about traditional foods, music, and languages from different cultures. She also enjoys singing in her free time. Many people said that she’s good, but she says it’s only for fun. Karaoke is one of her favorite things to do when she is in the car or at home. Angelina has this adorable 2-year-old Shih-Tzu that she loves so much. She has a liking for collecting albums and cute trinkets to show off on her shelf.

She also loves to go to the farmers market at River Park with her friends and her little sister. Supporting the local vendors is something she loves to do, plus she loves to shop.

Logan Payne, Social Media Editor

Logan Payne returns this semester as the Social Media Editor. He will step away from writing articles and embrace instead the more visual aspects of journalism. You’ll see him most often on the Rampage instagram, reporting on the new facilities and events that occur on campus. He will also help the incoming reporters with their stories and visual accompaniments. Before joining The Rampage, Logan was involved with the Roosevelt Theater Company for four years where he wrote, directed, acted, and worked backstage for many productions. He’s also a certified linguist who has always loved to read and write stories. Logan has grown very familiar with the cutting room; hours slip away when he video edits due to his perpetual perfectionism. He is well-versed in the art of film and knows that every frame shown and every note heard makes a key difference in the bigger picture. His Youtube channel is where he promotes most of his personal projects. This isn’t his first time in a newsroom either; he’s put together many news packages for Roosevelt High, CART, and The Rampage over the years and is more than comfortable with conducting an interview or being the handyman on set. Logan can’t work on anything without being meticulous, and this eye for detail makes him a wonderful asset to the team. This is Logan’s fourth semester as a journalism major here at Fresno City College, and he likes to spend his time on campus productively. When he’s not in class, he’s in the library catching up on schoolwork or building a narrative with his team in The Rampage newsroom.
