Jessica Crook, President
Hi everyone my name is Jessica Crook and I am a second-year Environmental Technology Student at Canadore College. I am incredibly excited to say that I have been elected as the incoming 2023-2024 CSC President. Through 2022-2023 I have served as the Vice President of Student Life and in my first year I was the Outdoor Recreation Assistant and Student Representative for Sports and Wellness. I have also participated in ICan Lead this year and I will be running sustainability events to promote Canadore's SDG goals. Throughout my academic career, I have always been a part of student leadership which led me to be a part of provincial organizations such as the Ontario Student Trustee Association (OSTA-AECO) and working in student councils for over 6 years. Therefore, advocating for students' rights and ensuring they receive the best possible education has always been a passion of mine and I will continue to do so throughout my term as CSC President.
