The time is NOW to vote for Miao
Re-elect Ranen Miao as Student Body President
ABOUT
Hi! My name's Ranen, like the weather. I'm a fighter for progress who can get shit done: and I'm running for a second term to continue building a WashU that centers your voices.
I joined Student Union as first year president on a platform of securing menstrual products for all, and won $50,000 to fund products across campus for the 2021-2022 academic year. As the gay, Asian son of immigrants, social justice for me is not about a catchphrase – it's about fighting for the inclusion and belonging that did not come naturally for me.
