In the contending corner, we have newcomer to student politics, Aaron Dillen. Dillen is a populist candidate who gained press for his questioning of the Board of Trustees and the Penn State administration about the Freeh Report during fireside chats with President Rodney Erickson. He is running with vice-presidential candidate, freshman Elias Machina.
