Bad news- this is the last FedS Councilor report for this term *sad panda*. The good news? Since I realize you all have more productive things to do, I’ll try to keep this to the point.
First off, the next FedS Meeting is Sunday December 5th at 12:30 in the Multi-Purpose Room of the SLC. There may be the possibility for Students-at-Large to get on some committees of the Federation for Winter 2011, however I don’t have the agenda as of press time so I don’t know for sure. I’ll e-mail the EngSoc mailing list with more information once I know. To get on that, check out engsoc.uwaterloo.ca or e-mail me directly by Thursday December 2nd for more information (e-mail at the end of the article).
Second, winter term means only one thing- FedS ELECTIONS! This is when you’ll see campus plastered with posters of people you likely don’t know, who will be asking for your vote. This is also your chance to get some change on campus so I encourage you to consider running for a seat- whether as a councillor, or executive. I’m sure The Iron Warrior and Imprint will cover the election extensively so make sure that you get informed and vote! The official site for the election is, as always, vote.feds.ca.
Finally, due to the election, any councillor or executive who is running for re-election has to take a leave of absence from their role during the campaigning period. This is meant to ensure fairness so that an incumbent doesn’t get increased coverage. We’ll do our best to make sure that any questions or concerns you have get passed onto someone who will be able to help you should any of us choose to run again.
Good luck with your exams and all the best for those of you who are heading out on co-op. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at t.ek.jenkins@gmail.com. I hope that this was short and readable so get back to studying!
