PLEASE SEE THE BELOW FINAL RESULTS OF STUDENTS ELECTED TO THE Arc BOARD OF DIRECTORS IN 2025.

Luke Sheridan (he/they)

Hi, I’m Luke, the Events Director of Wandering Society (Wandersoc) and an active participant in many other societies at UNSW. Arc loves to advertise itself as having “the largest clubs program in Australia,” yet it fails to give back to the hundreds of student volunteers who make it possible. Whether it's underfunding, poor communication, or long-delayed grants, Arc needs to improve.

If elected to Arc Board I intend to:

1. Streamline and improve the club grants process so individual payments are trackable and processed faster with maximum deadlines.

2. Return the spArc login access to 2 execs instead of 1, to increase club flexibility.

3. Give Food Hub a permanent location rather than 3-month leases, which will provide security to students who rely on it.

I understand the major issues facing clubs and I will work hard to provide the best possible experience for societies and the UNSW community.

Alice Williams (she/her)

I’m a third-year Law and Criminology student at UNSW, passionate about building a stronger, more inclusive student community. Having lived on-campus at Philip Baxter College, I’ve seen firsthand how vital a vibrant student life is for academic success and personal well-being. My involvement in the UNSW Law Society as the Beginners Mooting Director and my experience in prestigious mooting competitions have sharpened my leadership and collaboration skills—qualities I’d bring to the Board.

I’m committed to creating an environment where all students can thrive, whether through academic support, mental health resources, or social initiatives. As a former head of the Yearbook Committee and volunteer at various community events, I understand the importance of giving back to the community that shapes us.

Let’s work together to ensure UNSW continues to be a place where every student feels empowered to excel, connect, and contribute.

Sophia Nguyen (she/her)

Hey everybody!

My name is Sophia and I’m running to serve on the Arc Board this year!

As an Australian-born Vietnamese and a senior PR within the Vietnamese Students Association, I’ve always been deeply committed to building a supportive community for all. Through my involvement in both cultural and student-focused initiatives, I've come to truly understand the value of sharing experiences and culture within our societies.

I believe there’s so much more we can do to support students, such as making it cheaper to join uni clubs and promoting student wellbeing. Due to my work in the VSA and other clubs I know how to work across groups to get things done and make real changes to student life.

If elected to the Arc Board, I will dedicate myself to creating a more inclusive university culture, where students from all backgrounds can access the resources they need to succeed.

Malcolm Tran (he/him)

Yo yo yo, I’m here to rizz you into voting for me! If you want the most skibidi campus ever, I’m your rizzler. I’ll mog the usual board by bringing in vibes no one’s ever seen before. We’ll have “Rizz Battles” in the quad, free snacks that hit harder than a TikTok trend, and vibes that scream “Sigma” 24/7. Forget boring meetings—let's fanum tax those and bring in dance challenges, mewing sessions, and “POV” theme parties. Every study space will be a Sigma zone, Wi-Fi so good it’ll make you think you’re in the future. Ohio won’t exist here—we’re all about those gyatt vibes. So vote for me and let’s make Arc the real king of campus fun. Time to edge past the competition and make UNSW the place to be! #MakeArcGreatAgain
