Election Proceedings


Before the election, a form will be sent out to the club for nominations for leadership positions, including President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Health & Safety, and Fundraising, Sponsorship, & Alumni, Diversity and Community Outreach, and Head Consultants. On the day of the election, nominations will also be accepted from the floor. Self nominations may occur, in which case those nominations must be seconded by another member of the POC.  

During the elections, each nominee will have an equal amount of time to speak on their case. They can provide a slide of information and pictures if they would like. A question and answer period from the present voting body will follow. No other nominees for this position will be present during this time. 

If an Administrative Board nominee is not elected for a particular position, they are eligible to run for another office that has not yet been filled. 

Prior to voting for each position, a closed discussion will be held by the voting body. No nominees will be present during this debate. 

In the event that there are no nominations for an elected position, the members of the Administrative Board may fill this vacant position by an absolute majority vote at the first Administrative Board meeting at their discretion. 

Positions that require appointment by the Administrative Board will be appointed by an affirmative majority vote by the Administrative Board officers. These positions include Sports Consultants, Gear Consultants, and Events Coordinators.

A vote put to the general body shall be won by a simple plurality vote of present members.
