The Student Alliance

The Student Alliance, a new political party at UF that represents a merger of two groups of UF’s “independent movement”, has launched. I’ve already made note of Ben Cavataro’s run for Student Body President. Other candidates are on their way, including Sagar Shane, a graduate student for VP.

Their website, which can be found here looks very professional – I was shocked at the extent it looked like a real campaign site with attention-grabbing graphics. Most SG campaign websites end up being little more than a spruced up blog or a fancy business card. Definitely good work from SA’s Graham Clark.

They even have a place where they promise you can donate via PayPal and get “sweet Student Alliance swag” in return. I’m hoping they put their logo on a bunch of stuff from like Cafe Press so folks like me can buy it – but that’s probably too much work for them when they should be out campaigning.

Good luck. You’re off to a very good start with the branding of your party. And of course, I dig the choice in color scheme.
