hello hello gargarians Ψ(｀∀ ´#)ﾉ
time is upon us!!
eic nominations are OPEN and I encourage anyone interested to run. you are required to self-nominate through this form by april 16th 11:30 PM.
(masthead hiring will be coming in the next few weeks as well!)
do note, any information you share on the form will be shared with our staff and masthead. the informal campaign period is from april 16th to april 19th, but don’t actually campaign fr. it’s not that serious. there will be a discord channel with staff + masthead for Q&A’s as well as an opportunity reiterate what you bring to the role of eic. voting will happen from april 19th to april 23rd through a secret ballot organized by the cro amareena (me).
masthead will vote for 2 candidates; staff will vote for one. there will also be an option to abstain. the two candidates with the highest votes will be volume 71’s editor-in-chiefs!! if abstentions exceed the amount of votes for the top candidates, or if there’s a tie, a by-election is held within a week. complaints about the election can be formally submitted to the cro (amareena.saleh@mail.utoronto.ca), who may choose to escalate to uc mediator if needed.
we should know the results by april 24th!!
