Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

My name is Dylan L. Chambers. I was born and raised in a small community in Arkansas, but moved away at the age of 18 to study Political Science in college. Unfortunately, like many students, I dropped out during the chaos of the 2020 pandemic. That experience fundamentally shaped my strong alignment with progressive values and encouraged me to begin volunteering for various organizations. I currently serve as a Harassment and Grievance Officer for the Las Vegas Democratic Socialists of America and am an active member of the American Humanist Association. I have worked within the tourism industry for the majority of my professional career, starting at a small pumpkin patch in Arkansas and now working for a major children's YouTube brand in the Las Vegas tourism industry. I am someone who highly values creating opportunities for all students, regardless of financial background, and fostering an on-campus atmosphere that prevents the kind of excessive debt and hardship that so many students — including myself — experienced during 2020.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Humanity First. As a society, we must strive to take care of all of our fellow humans. This can be done through means beyond just affordability, by making sure that our higher education system is offering a top-tier support system for all students through robust physical and mental health services. We must ensure that students have access to services that keep them healthy, engaged, and motivated. My vision for the future of our campus culture is through a humanity-first lens that embraces the intersectional nature of health, community, and education.College for All. We must ensure that all students in Nevada have access to affordable, income-based tuition. This is why my key proposal as a potential member of the Nevada Board of Regents is advocating for the implementation of a sliding scale, income-based method for charging tuition. I believe that by having a fluid, income-focused tuition model, we can finally put an end to the crisis of rapidly rising costs in our higher education system.Empower the Students. We must restructure the way we view the nature of power in higher education. I believe that we must take action to increase the influence and representation of both students and student organizations on campus. Students are the true soul of a college campus and deserve a real seat at the table when it comes to the policies of our higher education institutions. I believe in a bottom-up approach to governance that empowers the communities that make up our campuses and takes power away from corporate-affiliated elites involved in setting the current standards of governing our higher education system.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am passionate about ensuring representation for those who are being neglected or ignored by the powers that be. I believe that the driving force of democracy is ensuring that the systems in place are not overlooking those to whom they owe their power. It is easy for institutions in our society to drift toward elitism, and we must actively present a narrative that can combat these tendencies.

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?

It's genuinely a tie between President Jimmy Carter and Albert Camus. Both of these men shaped my life in different, major ways, and I truly hope my legacy could be even a fraction of either of theirs

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

You have to be a fighter and willing to take an unorthodox approach to politics. American politics radically changed in 2016, and there is no going back. We need leaders who are willing to actually engage directly with and listen to our population. We must abandon narcissistic campaigns that focus on framing a single person in a trendy light through traditional political channels. We need true character and true passion

What legacy would you like to leave?

At the end of the day, I want to be remembered as a true fighter for the interests of the common person and those who are struggling. My entire campaign is built upon the pillar of serving those in need and reforming our institutions to have a more intersectional, less capital-intensive focus.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

My professional journey began at Motley's Farm, a local pumpkin patch and Christmas tree farm in the rural Arkansas community of my youth. Although I only worked there for one season at age 16, the experience fundamentally shaped my work ethic. It instilled in me a drive and a 'hustle mindset' that continue to define my approach to work today.

What is something that has been a struggle in your life?

I was a student who had to learn to overcome challenges related to dyslexia and OCD. I believe my experience as a neurodivergent individual within higher education is core to the man I am today and the platform my campaign is built on. We are systematically failing all of our students when higher education caters to the elite and no longer serves as a common area for the expansion of both one's mind and labor prospects.

What was the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember?

I very clearly remember George W. Bush winning the 2004 Presidential election against John Kerry.
