I should be able to put in adequate hours to get my job done for MSA
What does MSA mean to you? Why are you getting involved with MSA, other than
the fact that you were nominated?
MSA is a place where muslims can come and meet others who are just like them. It
is almost like a fraternity as life long friend ships can be made and bonds
between people are strengthened. I feel that the MSA has diminished on the
campus in providing students the ability to come and meet other people. I want
to make the MSA into the strong organization it was a few years ago.

I feel that The Brotherhood position requires a person who gets along well with
other people which is what the position requires.

member? Include future plans you have in respect to the position.
I want to bring the MSA back to the social power that it used to be.

organization (please specify)?
I will still help as I have been these past years...as an active member.
If you are elected, will your parent(s) be supportive of your work with the
organization?
Yes they will
