"The Voice of Every Longhorn"

Breaking News

FOR THE 40 ACRES

Anew era of student leadership is here. Grounded in tradition, focused on the future, and dedicated to the voice of every Longhorn.

We believe in a university that empowers its students. The 40 Acres is more than just a campus; it's a community, a legacy, and a promise. Pedro and Noah are committed to upholding that promise by bridging the gap between administration and the student body, opening doors to opportunity, and protecting the spirit that makes UT unique.

Our platform is built on three pillars: Transparency, Advocacy, and Community. We aren't just running for office; we are running to serve, to listen, and to deliver results that students can feel every day on campus. Join us in writing the next chapter of our university's history.

Classified Policies

Real solutions for real students
NO. 01

Elite Career Access

Transforming Student Government into a power broker for jobs.

Beyond career fairs: exclusive partnerships with elite-tier firms (BlackRock, Tesla, Disney), direct pipelines to medical programs and research fellowships at Harvard and Hopkins, and a national alumni network connecting UT students to top young leaders across the U.S.

NO. 02

A Modernized Campus

Bringing daily infrastructure into the 21st century.

Delivering fully functional Digital IDs, expanding Apple Wallet and Google Pay campus-wide, and removing parking barriers so students can access gyms, libraries, and amenities they already pay tuition to use. Modern access should be fast, secure, and available everywhere students already tap in.

NO. 03

Student Safety & Rights

Protecting physical safety and constitutional rights.

Engineering a dedicated bike lane on Speedway, reforming campus speech codes so no student organization is restricted in free expression, and enforcing strict oversight to ensure elections are won through honest campaigning, not corruption. Safety and rights move together, and both must be protected.

NO. 04

National Power & Sovereignty

Positioning UT Austin as a national leader.

Launching the first National Student Government Council with Ivy League and Public Ivy leaders, rewriting the student constitution to return emergency powers to students, and building a multi-year foundation to make reforms last beyond a single term. UT should set the standard, not follow it.
