Third-year Commerce student Ekaterina Dovjenko managed to defeat Michael Haack in the race for VP administration.

At results night, Dovjenko said she was “overwhelmed but excited” about having won and “glad to have run against someone who is just as good.”

The new SUB, a keystone of the VP administration portfolio, is obviously the new AMS executive’s focus. “I feel Crystal [Hon] has done a great job and I’m just going to take it from her and from here,” she said. “First of all, we have to make sure that the SUB negotiations are signed and that students are involved.”

Haack said he doesn’t regret running. “I knew that going into the election, Ekaterina would be a tough opponent. Her name was better well-known….I just saw it as a challenge and wanted to see if I could make it.”
