Listen "Inside UVA with the '21-22 Student Council President"
Episode Synopsis
Abel Liu wasn't planning on getting involved in Student Council when he started at UVA. But when he got here, he was excited about student self-governance and the opportunity to make a difference for his peers. Then COVID hit and he got that opportunity. Even before Abel was elected president, he was involved in lobbying for a credit/no credit option for students during the height of the pandemic in Charlottesville. Abel now serves as UVA's first ever Chinese-American Student Council President and the first University Student Council President in America to be transgender at the time of their election. In this interview, he talks about why he choose to make a cross-country move for college and some of his proudest accomplishments from his four years on Student Council.
