The allegations that the Gator Party is actually the "Greek Party" are ridiculous. As a Gator Party senator, I can say with absolute sincerity that this is not true. The Gator Party prides itself on enlisting qualified and outstanding leaders from different organizations at UF, many of whom have no Greek-based involvement.
While the Gator Party appreciates the enthusiasm for service brought by many individuals in the Greek community, it by no means is exclusive to them.
Majority Party Leader Shire Patel and Rules and Ethics Committee Chairwoman Danielle D'Oyley are prime examples of Student Senate leaders who have no Greek affiliation and have excelled with the support of the Gator Party. Both of these individuals exemplify the Gator Party's principles of student service and tangible results.
We look to find the most experienced leaders from all of campus so we can represent the desires and needs of the UF student body as a whole.
