This whole enrollment is for the election of the 51th Korea University Student Union (KUSU), whose Voting Period starts from December 5 to 7. Two candidates named SYNERGY and Da-gam recently came up with five main campaign pledges each, both of which promise to ameliorate the educational environments in the Science and Engineering Campus as one of the promises.
