Are you interested in running for an elected position?  You have a few options: You can run to be a Class of 2013 Senator in the Students’ Association Senate, you can run for your 2013 Class Council, or you can run for your Hall Council in your residence.  You can also apply for a non-elected position as an executive aide for the Students’ Association.

Make sure to attend Get Involved Night on Sunday, August 30th. Dinner in Danforth will be from 5:30-7pm, and it will be followed by an information session in the May Room in Wilson Commons from 7-8pm.  This is where you will get all the information you need about how to run and what the different positions are.
