From the Cult: VP finance interviews

The VP finance deals with all things money at the AMS. They create yearly budgets and oversee the AMS/GSS health and dental plan. We know you’ve heard about each of the candidates’ plans of what they’d do when they become VP moola through our buds at Ubyssey news. But what about their stances on the simple things like crying on campus or celebrities? Don’t fret, we asked so you don’t have to.

Angad Singh Gill

Are you for or against pineapple on pizza?

I am for.

What is your favourite podcast?

I actually don’t listen to any podcasts, more into music.

Best spot to cry on campus?

The Life Science building. I've always found it to be a huge maze. I was able to find a really good spot on the fourth floor which is secluded. You can cry there, you can sleep there, you can shout there.

What word do you start with on Wordle?

‘Adieu’… There [are] a lot of vowels.

Who is your favourite UBC celebrity?

I guess it would be the Thunderbird.

Noah Jassmann

Are you for or against pineapple on pizza?

For.

What is your favourite podcast?

Anything motivational, nothing specific. Anything that gets me up in the morning.

Best spot to cry on campus?

The library.

What word do you start with on Wordle?

I don’t play Wordle, but if you give me a brief introduction as to what it is, I’ll pick a word…. ‘supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.’

Note: When explaining Wordle to Jassmann during our interview, we forgot to tell him words are only supposed to be five letters long.

Who is your favourite UBC celebrity?

Santa Ono, absolutely.

Rita Jin

Are you for or against pineapple on pizza?

I wouldn't pick it as my first choice, like ever. There's just so many different better options, like come on.

What is your favourite podcast?

If I'm feeling motivational, I’ll pop on Mindset Mentor. If I’m feeling sophisticated. I want to listen to Little Talking Slow French as a way of, you know, convincing myself that my years of French education did not go to waste.

Best spot to cry on campus?

Rose Garden slaps at night. But like a lot of the comments [say] on Reddit, you can't go wrong with buses. [You can also] aggressively walk down Main Mall while crying, assert your dominance that way.

What word do you start with on Wordle?

‘Crash.’ I feel like this entire year has been like a crash and burn. And also because like you know, it's got the consonants, it's got like a vowel in there.

Who is your favourite UBC celebrity?

The first answer that I would have thought would be The Rat, but they’re a candidate. I like the bird in the fountain.
