The campaign wants to establish a forum to convey where tuition dollars go to students, who he said are largely unaware of what proportions of the money goes where.
Guilfoyle and Walters will pay attention to increasing student voice by mobilizing student voters, who are largely apathetic to student government to make their needs known.
"One of our main points is to restore faith in the student government," Walters said. "Student governments impact students a lot more than I think some people realize."
Powers and Katers were unavailable for comment.
Each of the campiagns are allowed a $2,000 spending limit. They are self-funded and candidates are allowed to raise the money through donations and some fundraising.
The campaigns will run through April 7, when voting, which will be hosted by RamWeb, starts. Students will have the opportunity to ask the campaigners questions at debates, the first on Wednesday and the second on April 1. Voting will last through April 9.
