ASUA Elections - College of Medicine Senator Position

My name is Chloé Durand and I am the Elections Commissioner for ASUA, the student government on campus. We are looking for diverse and motivated Medicine students to represent their college by running for a senator position within ASUA.

The application process is simple; students can go to the official elections website at www.elections.asua.arizona.edu and fill out the Candidacy Form under "Forms." There is no signature requirement for a senate seat either like the executive (President, Administrative Vice President, Executive Vice President) positions do. 

The application deadline is this Friday, January 27th at 10 AM and we are really looking to reach out to Medicine students as much as possible because we haven't had that many people apply for the Medicine senator position, and last year no one ran to represent the College of Medicine.
