Realistically, the tension, heat and the charged atmosphere in this year's UCC SRC elections cannot be compared to last year, however, everything came to a successful end. We're hoping that the newly elected personalities will work their hearts out and put the interest of the electorates (students) at the zenith level instead of their own. With this, We believe UCC will be the beacon of hope among its contenders.
