CSS 2021-2022 Election time!
Hey, Everyone!
It's election time! If you don't know who we are, the Computer Science Society is all undergrad students with a CS major, led by a board of elected students. Our aim is to improve your university experience by hosting workshops, social events, and more.
The Computer Science Society is holding elections for executive/head positions for the 2021/2022 school year. Elections for our non-head positions will be held after this election concludes, so you can apply for another position if you don't get elected for one of these :)
We are opening the nomination period starting today and ending Sunday, February 28th at 11:59pm. A campaigning period will commence after that, followed by the vote, which is scheduled for March 3rd-4th. There have been amendments to the responsibilities of roles so make sure to check those out in the constitution. To run for President or Vice President you must have held a previous position in the CSS board at least once. Our constitution has been revised and is viewable on our GitHub (https://github.com/UWindsorCSS/Documents/blob/master/constitution.md). In order to nominate yourself, fill out this nomination form before the 28th. Good luck to all candidates!
Available roles:
1. President
2. Vice-President
3. Treasurer
4. Head of Societal Development
5. Head of Events
6. Career Advisor
