College of Science and Health Representative
I am a first-year student in the College of Science and Health, and my major is Environmental Science. When I graduate, I would like to explore a career in meteorology or atmospheric science. I was born in Chicago, but I was raised in Austin, Texas.
If I get elected to the SGA I want to help students be more connected with others within the college and be able to connect with other students with the same interests. To do this, I will promote events that cater specifically to students from the College of Science and Health. I also want to help students explore more specific interests, utilizing different resources in the school or different colleges. Additionally, I would like to help students create connections with employers and professors by forming and strengthening connections and helping the resources be more available to students.
College of Science and Health Representative
Hello! My name is Xavier Meyers, and I am a sophomore studying Health Sciences with a minor in Spanish. I am a proud Latino from Sacramento, California, and some of my hobbies include cooking, hiking, camping, Magic: The Gathering, and playing rugby (shout out to DePaul Men's Rugby Club). I am currently on the pre-medical track and hope to one day become an orthopedic surgeon. Although a lofty goal, it is my belief that if there is something you want, you have to have the determination to make it happen first
In my time as a representative, I want to establish that the priority of the College of Science and Health is the students. STEM can be a very draining field, and I want to ensure that the students have the support they need to succeed both academically and personally. I plan to organize/continue multiple events with this mission in mind, such as mental health check-ins with support dogs, drop-in tutoring during finals week, and study group meet-and-greets so no one has to study alone. The College of Science and Health already gets a lot right, so going forward, I want to make sure it only gets better.

I’m Jazib, a Mathematics and Computer Science major who’s passionate about collaboration and representation. Through my experience leading student initiatives and working on cross-disciplinary projects, I’ve learned how to listen, organize, and deliver. I’m running to bring that same energy and commitment to our student government.
I have many goals for this term, and with my prior experience in SGA, I’m excited to continue contributing to ongoing initiatives. As the CDM Representative, my top priority is to build stronger collaborations between our college and the main undergraduate body in Lincoln Park to help both thrive. I also want to play an active role in shaping DePaul’s leadership in AI and emerging technologies. Lastly, I look forward to contributing to my favorite event, the Interfaith Dinner, during the winter quarter!
