Bio and Platform: Home Means Nevada-
To Carmina, the University of Nevada has always meant home. Some of her fondest memories have been tied to the University- whether that be her first live football game in Mackay Stadium, field trips to the Planetarium, orchestra concerts in Nightingale Hall or high school graduation at Lawlor.
Many people describe going off to university as leaving home. But to Carmina, attending the University of Nevada felt like finally coming home. Therefore, she has always looked for every opportunity to challenge the University to be the best it can be for its students and future generations to come.
Senator Aglubat and Senator McNamara strive to create a home for every student. Home is found in the clubs and organizations where shared passions unite people. It is felt in a campus culture that honors diversity, ensuring every identity is welcomed and celebrated. It is built through traditions that connect the past with the present, inviting everyone to be part of something greater than themselves.
No matter where your journey begins or the path you choose, the University of Nevada should offer a place to belong, a place to grow and a place to call home. That is why the Aglubat-McNamara campaign is built on the foundation of Home Means Nevada. At its heart, this is about creating a home for everyone—a home defined by tradition, wellness, community, connection and the promise of shared purpose.
