CSG party profiles: Meet True Blue, 
Arathi Sabada and Marriane Drysdale

In run-up to March elections, party platform calls for more safe and accessible campus

What are your plans for 
spring break?

“Go back home 
and then fill out 
FAFSA and worry 
about exams 
that are going to 
happen after the 
break.”

LSA sophomore David 
Geering

As students gear up for 

the University of Michigan’s 
Central Student Government 
elections on March 21 and 
22, The Daily sat down with 
executive candidates to talk 
platforms, vision, and plans. In 
this installment, we profile the 
True Blue party, headlined by 
presidential candidate Arathi 
Sabada and vice presidential 
candidate Marianne Drysdale.

Business 
junior 
Arathi 

Sabada, True Blue’s presidential 
candidate, got involved with 

Central Student Government 
almost as soon as she stepped 
onto campus her freshman year. 
She decided it was time to run 
for president after seeing the 
importance of engaging with the 
student body.

“I got involved with CSG my 

first semester freshman year so it 
was a very new experience, and I 
had so many incredible mentors, 
and it gave me an amazing 
platform to work on issues I saw 
on campus,” Sabada said. “When 
I was going through tough times, 
CSG really helped me in terms of 
programs that it had, so seeing 
what the platform did for me 
and seeing what it could do for 

other students in terms of the 
work (was important). I did a lot 
of work in terms of supporting 
student 
organizations 
with 

food 
insecurity 
on 
campus 

and seeing how powerful the 
platform was, and feeling like I 
had the experience to lead that 
organization is what inspired 
me to run. I also just really love 
engaging with different student 
organizations and talking to 
students on the Diag in my role as 
a former executive member, and 
working on a couple campaigns, 
that was something I was really 
looking forward to doing and 
inspired me to run.”

LSA sophomore Marianne 

Drysdale, True Blue’s vice 
presidential candidate, said 
she felt like CSG was her 
first real community on 
campus, and felt compelled 
to run this semester after 
thinking about the impact 
the body has had on her own 
experience.

“When I came to campus 

as a freshman, I knew that I 
wanted to get involved but I 
had no idea what I wanted 
to get involved in so I was 
definitely the kid at Festifall 
talking 
to 
every 
single 

booth,” Drysdale said. “I 
spent first semester feeling 
like really involved, but 
spending a lot of hours doing 
a lot of nothing, I felt like I 
wasn’t involved in anything 
that was really a tight-knit 
community. So when I ran on 
the campaign for CSG it was 
like the first moment where 
I was like, ‘Woah,’ I feel 
like I’m touching this really 
important work … Right now 
I’m a (CSG) chair position 
for communications, which 
is a lot of making sure 
students are engaging in 

student government and student 
government is engaging with 
students, which is a lot of what 
an executive position is. I also 
knew Arathi through working 
on the campaign last year, 
and when I found out she was 
running I was really excited 
to work on her campaign in 
whatever capacity possible and 
then the opportunity presented 
itself to be VP, and I took a 
minute to think about it and I 
thought, ‘You know, this is really 
something I could see myself 
doing and liking’ so it was totally 
unexpected.”

Sabada said one of her party’s 

main policy points has to do 
with food insecurity. She is also 
committed to improving overall 
student experience.

“There’s not a lot of grocery 

stores in the area. It’s really 
hard to have access to healthy 
and affordable food and I think 
there’s so many great orgs who 
are doing so much amazing work 
on campus, from Maize and Blue 
Cupboard to the Food Insecurity 
Taskforce, (and) I think CSG 
would be a really great way to 
scale up that work,” she said. 
“One thing that I’m really 
excited 
about 
is 
potentially 

hosting a pop-up grocery store 
in partnership with a local 
grocery store where they could 
come to campus and students 
could purchase that fresh and 
affordable produce as a shorter 
term initiative, and definitely 
working towards a longer-term 
initiative — eventually opening 
up a grocery store on campus 
where students can buy that 
healthy and affordable food, is 
something we’re really excited
