Sandip Trivedi (sophomore-chemical engineering) and Anup Misra (sophomore-computer science and math) said their single campaign goal is to get tuition to the forefront of USG concerns.
To achieve this goal, Trivedi said his plan is to work with Penn State President Graham Spanier and alumni groups to lobby representatives in Harrisburg.

Their one-issue platform of lowering tuition will help all students, unlike platform goals by other candidates, Trivedi said.
He said most groups that need representation have it.
Proposing solutions for other issues will not help everyone in the Penn State community, he added.
"We think the biggest issue on students' minds is tuition," Misra said.
"The foremost thing student leaders should do is help the student body to lower tuition because it affects all students," he said.

Trivedi and Misra do not have experience in USG.
If elected, Trivedi said he would like to eliminate the senate and judicial branches of USG because he said they only argue among themselves, though he said this probably would not be possible.
The pair declined to say which students groups they are involved in.
