Get to Know Your Student Government: Senator Jeremy Gerhärdt

Jeremy Gerhärdt, 19, Athol, Political Science – ASNIC SenatorJeremy

Favorite Color: I could say a Blue. I think it’s a cool color, it’s found a lot in nature.

Favorite Movie: The Campaign,” I just like a lot of the crude humor, and the fact that it had to do with a political campaign made me laugh. […] “Blast from the Past,” too […] It deals with a lot of human hysteria and it’s funny to see the whole happening of it.

How NIC should look a year after leaving student government: I’d like to see more people aware of ASNIC is probably the most important thing, because we have the means to get quite a bit done. And we do get quite a bit done as it is, but more than anything if people could just kinda team up with us and get involved with us more that’d be the best thing. And I think from there all problems would solve themselves.

Inspiration to join student government: When I was out doing a political campaign I kind of got to know the people around the campus and college, and really got to know the community. And it gave me a chance to enjoy getting to know people and from there it gave me a new sense of belonging here.

Celebrity Crush: I don’t actually really know who the celebrities are nowadays, I don’t watch TV so I just don’t really have an answer.

Favorite bands/music: Nirvana, Led Zeppelin, Queens of the Stone Age, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Flogging Molly, Boston, Talking Heads, Grateful Dead, you know. Something eclectic, something cool and unusual, but not something so cool and unusual that it makes me seem like a stinkin’ hipster.

If A.I. could equal our free will and chose to take action against our society, would it be OK to press a button turning them off: I think that there’s a lot of variables. From a typical human standpoint we would want to preserve ourselves by doing it, but whether it’s right or not would be based on what we did to make them wanna hurt us, because if they did have the same ethics and morality and intelligence as we did then obviously that meant we would have to have harmed them. But then obviously if they are equal to us, then they might not have been rightly found in doing so because human ethics and morality are flawed just as well.
