Story:

At the annual SRC Strategy Summit, Emma and the Student Rights team Identified that UNF had a restrictive policy against nonlethal weapons on campus. Inspired by her training at YALCON, Emma hopped into action and began tabling to support an amended policy change. During this time, she also helped to push forward a beneficial Free Speech policy that helped to defend students’ First Amendment rights! An activist through and through, Emma pushed forward against the ban on nonlethals. After a strong showing of support from the student body, the school caved and with Hailey McTee finishing the charge, changed its policies to allow pepper spray and tasers on campus.
