   Meanwhile, on November 17, campaign headquarters ‘Damda’, the sole candidate, won the Jukjeon Campus election. Park Seong-heon (Business Administration major) and Park Beom-seong (Dept. of Chemical Engineering) were designated as president and vice president for the 55th Student Council. Their key promises are to hold the cultural event every semester, disclose detailed grades, and improve Braille sidewalk blocks and wheelchair movement routes for students with disabilities.

   The Dankook Herald is rooting for both student councils to make a better campus for Dankookians (Students of DKU).
