Watch for signs posted in Draper announcing this position over the next couple of weeks. The student association will be holding nominations for officers between Monday, September 27 and Friday October 1. The Student Association is an organization that serves a liaison function between students and faculty of the School of Criminal Justice. They organize social functions, academic meetings, and provide student representation at faculty meetings. The School of Criminal Justice is one of the few schools that allows for student representation on a number of issues, such as tenure decisions, contract decisions, curriculum, etc.
Student representation is very important.
Keep an eye out for nomination slips. Nominees will have until Tuesday, October 5 to accept nominations. Elections will be held between Wednesday, October 6 and Friday, October 8. New officers will be announced by Monday October 11. It's easy to get on the list and we hope that more people join so we can start discussing things like what classes are like, how to prepare for comps, how to navigate the minefield of the dissertation, and any other topics that seem interesting.
