The RA Elections Now Open! Your Hall Needs You!

The elections for the Residence Association re-opened yesterday! Many of the positions were not filled in December and this election hopes to change that!

If you are living in a Hall of Residence then this is your opportunity to be elected and join your current Residence Association (elected in December 07). As a member of your RA, you will help organise events and activities for your Hall and look after the well-being of your fellow residents.


There are different positions available depending on which Hall you live in. These positions include President, VP Finance, VP Services, VP Volunteering, Sports Officer, Ents Officer and Marketing & Promotions Officer.

Here are some important dates:-
Nominations Open: Tues 15th January 2008 (today!)
Nominations Close: Fri 25th January 2008
Withdrawal Deadline: Wed 30th January 2008
Campaigning Begins: Thu 9am 31st January 2008
Voting: Mon 4th Feb - Thu 7th Feb 2008

More information can be found by e-mailing myself or democracy@guild.bham.ac.uk or m.mccormack@guild.bham.ac.uk or n.khan@guild.bham.ac.uk. You can also find more information in the nomination packs, available at Reception or in Student Development.

And feel free to speak to your current RAs for info and advice. They are all lovely :)
