Election Information Meetings
There will be two optional informational sessions this year! The first one will be held during Welcome Week on August 24th at 2:30pm in the May Room in Wilson Commons. The second one will be held on Sunday, September 1st at 3:30pm in Genesee 325. You will have the opportunity to talk to many members of SA Government and learn about the election process and rules at these events. If you are not able to attend either of these meetings, please watch the elections information video (coming soon) instead, as this information will be needed in order to pass the elections quiz.
