Summary Blurb:

We’re T & Xander running for Freshman Caucus! We want better events, real communication, and a year that’s actually fun—not just stressful. Vote T & Xander for a freshman year worth remembering.

Platform / Policies:

 

StuyWell : AI Therapist & Mental Health Hub

A secure, private digital platform to help students manage stress.

 

  • AI Therapist Chat for 24/7 emotional support and guidance
  • Mood tracking to help students monitor stress over time
  • Self-help exercises (breathing, grounding, study–stress balance)
  • Immediate links to guidance counselors and crisis options

 

 

Goal: Reduce the pressure culture and give every student support anytime.

 

 

2. StuyConnect: Meet New People & Build Real Friendships

 

A social matching feature to help students form real connections.

 

  • Interest matching (sports, fandoms, music, clubs, career goals)
  • Group hangouts organized by shared interests
  • New-student buddy program for transfers & freshmen
  • Optional anonymity for introverted students

 

Goal: End the “everyone is busy and alone” feeling — build a connected Stuy.

 

3. Study Partner Finder (Teacher-Specific)

 

A tool that automatically matches students taking the same teacher’s tests.

 

  • Find classmates studying the same unit
  • Create group chats or silent study groups
  • Share notes, Quizlets, and past information
  • Optional “exam countdown reminders”

Goal: Make studying smarter, not harder.

4. De-Stress Rooms & Wellbeing Spaces

Open-access safe spaces to decompress during free periods.

 

  • Quiet rooms with soft lighting
  • Relaxation tools: fidgets, white noise, stretching mats
  • Meditation & breathing sessions during high-stress weeks
  • Monthly “mental reset” days with short wellness activities

 

Goal: Reduce burnout and make school feel human again.

 

5. Real-Time Student Voice Forms

 

A structured system to gather opinions every month.

 

  • Quick polls on schedules, workload, cafeteria issues
  • Anonymous open-response forms
  • “What’s stressing you out this week?” surveys
  • Public summary reports so the administration actually hears us

 

 

Goal: Make student government listen to everyone, not just a few.

 

6. StuyEats: Live Lunch Menu Calendar

Students always know what’s being served.

  • Daily menu posted automatically
  • “Rate today’s lunch” options
  • Highlight healthier and halal/vegetarian options
  • Alerts when Café or kiosk options sell out

 

Goal: No more guessing what’s for lunch. Make food planning easier
