Position: Treasurer
Major: Philosophy, Politics, and Economics
Year of Study: 2
Isaac is currently the Treasurer of UR POLIS and it is his first year on the executive.
Isaac chose to major in PPE because he is passionate about lifting others up and making a positive impact on the world. His favorite part of PPE is how it creates a holistic understanding of the world in bringing together three connected yet distinct disciplines.
Outside of his studies Isaac plays cello, loves playing pickleball with friends and family, hiking, and reading. He is also a proud leader of a church youth group.
Isaac’s favourite class is PPE 200, a classic course that explores current issues and topics through the lens of each discipline. The course is solution based, allowing young minds to think realistically yet optimistically about the future.
Isaac’s favourite UR POLIS event would have to be the Policy Case Competition as he aspires to have a future career in law or public policy someday.
