  1. When the crowd went HAM on the VP External candidates.

  1. When no one was sure if Darwin was throwing shade.

  1. When the VP Finance candidates really wanted us to know they were friends.

  1. When VP Student Life candidate Curtis Pooghkay channelled Petter.

  1. When VP External Kathleen Yang got real about the SFSS’ most important services.

  1. When we maybe got a little too sassy to VP Student Services candidate Larissa Chen. (Sorry, Larissa.)
