Executive Board Election Nominees

NOMINATIONS CLOSED UNTIL SPRING 2009

Election Guidelines/Procedures

Elections will be held each Spring (this semester: 28 February 2008) at the GSA Delegate Meeting. Elections will be held at the beginning of the meeting, so make sure you are on time!

The procedure/guidelines are as follows:

• The nominations for each position will close just prior to the election of that position (to accommodate any last minute nominations), which will occur in the following order:
  • President
  • Vice President - Membership
  • Vice President - Programs
  • Secretary
  • Treasurer
• Each nominee will have up to 2 minutes to give a short speech/introduction. Each nominee will have 2 minutes to answer any questions. The only exception is for the nominees for President, who will have up to 3 minutes for the speech.
• The votes will be tallied for each position after the speeches for that position are finished.
• Each nominee may prepare a one-page sheet that will be available on the GSA website. You may include anything you would like, but please keep it to a page or less. Suggestions include: introduction; statement of interest; qualifications; and ideas. As soon as you submit this to gsa at vt.edu, it will be made available on the web.
• You may wish to provide a handout at the actual meeting. Please bring your own copies.
