Matadors Leading Forward candidates Jonathan Hay and Kaitlyn Orozco have been elected the president and vice president of the Associated Students for the 2021-2022 academic year.

“I am truly grateful for the opportunity CSUN students gave us. Kaitlyn and I have so many things planned for next year and can’t wait to get started on them,” Hay said.

The duo, who won with 58% of the total vote, ran under the Matadors Leading Forward campaign, which focuses on the pillars “giving back,” “transparency” and “support.” They plan to connect with the entire student body, create inclusive spaces for students to amplify their voices and expand student resources.

“I am absolutely honored to be elected as the next AS Vice President, alongside my presidential running mate Jonathan,” Orozco said. “Right now, I’m incredibly thankful for all the individuals who supported us throughout our campaign journey. I really couldn’t have asked for a better support system! I’m looking forward to taking action and bringing some real change to our campus!”
