<p>How much does it help to be like a member of student government?
Elections are going on right now at school and it's crazy with all
these campaign things and candies and whatnot.</p>
<p>How impressive is it to the college adcoms?</p>
<p>It's probably just as important as a leadership role in any other EC. It shows initiative, but it isn't a hook. Lots of people are going to have leadership positions, so it is not something that is really going to stand out.</p>
