ASUW Student Disability Commission
Toby Gallant

Pronouns: He/They
Academic Year: Third year, Senior
Major/Studies: Disability Studies with concentrations in Education, Law, & American Sign Language
Hometown: San Diego, CA

What does your position entail?
I serve as a representative on behalf of students with disabilities identifying and addressing access-related barriers and advocating for institutional changes to UW administration, state representatives and student leaders. My job consists of mainly advocacy work from writing and sponsoring legislation in ASUW Student Senate to hosting educational disability-related workshops, programs and campaigns.

Why did you get involved in student leadership?
I got involved in student leadership because I wanted to utilize the skills and knowledge gained from class and community to make tangible change on campus. As a Disability Studies major who entered the UW at the peak of the pandemic, I noticed the disregard for disability-related issues and representation among student leadership and in important discussions and felt compelled to get involved.

What do you wish you’d known about the UW sooner?
I wish knew about all the various ways to make your voice be heard and become involved on campus to make real change. I highly recommend checking out the Associated Students of the UW (ASUW), and especially the various diversity-based commissions within it, for ways to get involved to advocate for student concerns.

Anything you want to add?
Learn more about the Student Disability Commission at sdc.asuw.org or visit us in the Husky Union Building, Room 131Q!

Pronouns: He/They
Academic Year: Third year
Major/Studies: Biology-Physiology

What does your position entail?
I lead the Residential Community Student Association. In this role, I coordinate residential advocacy efforts, empower residents to communicate their concerns to Housing and Food Services staff and provide resources for professional development to residents.

Why did you get involved in student leadership?
I got involved in student leadership due to a deep concern for the effect of residential conditions on the performance of on-campus residents. Feelings of unsafety or overwhelming sensations in the face of living by oneself for the first time is a daunting obstacle in the way of new and continuing residents’ success. I wanted to elevate the residential experience to support the success of my peers and of the entire UW community.

What do you wish you’d known about the UW sooner?
I wish I had known about scholarships offered through various departments as well as the availability of various paying student jobs through the HUB as well as Housing and Food Services.

Anything you want to add?
Please come to General Council 4:30-6:30 p.m. on Wednesdays in Madrona 313 if you are a resident on campus! We would love to have you engage with residential advocacy!

ASUW President Timothy Billing
Associated Students of the University of Washington (ASUW)
Timothy Billing, President

Pronouns: He/Him
Academic Year: Senior
Major/Studies: International Studies and Psychology
Hometown: Seattle
Favorite place on campus: The HUB

What does your position entail? As president, I help uplift the student experience to the many levels of UW governance, including the UW Board of Regents, Faculty Senate, and even our state government. When I’m not in meetings, I am helping support our 70+ student employees that are working to improve the student experience as well as listening to student’s stories.

Why did you get involved in student leadership? During my first few months at UW, I felt lost in almost every way. It wasn’t until I discovered ASUW that I discovered my passion for public service and confidence that I could create a positive change. Ever since my freshman year, I have made it my mission to make the Husky Experience better and to help make every student feel that they belong and deserve to be here. Student Leadership has given me this opportunity and allowed me to meet some lifelong friends!

What does your position entail? Lots of meetings with a lot of caring people. The GPSS exists to serve graduate and professional students by (re)building community and amplifying their voices to UW campus partners and administration as well as in Olympia and D.C.

Why did you get involved in student leadership? As a high school science teacher, I was a FIRST robotics mentor. At UW, I joined Husky Robotics as a business team grad student member, and we were thinking of applying to the Student Technology Fee (STF). My second year my schedule was full of travel, so I joined the STF Committee itself, and I became a GPSS Senator. At the end of my third year, I was elected as GPSS Vice President of Finance, and now I’m president! Mentoring is incredibly important to me, so I’m also directly involved in the American Red Cross Club at UW.

5. Navigating UW

“Bipolar Disorder has never been depicted in a particularly positive manner and being labeled as such made me feel like I was at a huge disadvantage in terms of being able to accomplish my dreams or to fulfill my responsibilities. It has been very difficult trying to combat negative thoughts and the emergence of symptoms while also trying to keep up with my course load. To be a successful student during my academic pursuits at UW, I have had to learn to recognize and mediate my hypomanic and depressive symptoms, and also ensure that I have safety nets in place, such as accommodations with Disability Resources for Students.” -Graduate student
