Imagine a learning environment that empowers students with the motivation to succeed and provides the skills employers demand.

As an extremely motivated individual that encourages creativity of all sorts, I am fully committed to improving our post-secondary school experience, and enhancing our learning environment for all the students in the MAD Faculty.

My name is Edy Garcia; I am currently enrolled in Music Business Management at Durham College. With a history of design work on graphic editors, current experience revolving around the media, technology and arts altogether, I am confident that I can bring meaningful change as we strive to improve our education system for you.

My vision aims to empower students by helping them adapt to our ever-evolving fascinating industries, improving their skills/critical thinking, and offering them the actual resources to do so. What do I mean by that? After personally asking students from each program in the MAD faculty, the main concern surrounds out-of-date and/or unrelated courses that students should not be paying for. For example, our broadcasting program doesn’t educate our students on WideOrbit, which is extremely essential in the workplace. Another example is our music business program has our students attending early morning classes when we are also required to attend shows late at night. In identifying and rectifying these issues, we can further ameliorate Durham College’s reputation to offer current and future students an exceptionally better experience. Vote for me, so we can shape the future together.
