2017 Election from Schools to Senate

Voting is now open in four Schools to elect colleagues to the Senate.

We have had a healthy response to the Call for Nominations, and this will mean that there will need to be an election held in each of the four Schools where positions will become vacant. Unfortunately, this will mean that some candidates will be disappointed; however their willingness to serve is admirable.

At close of nominations the following candidates were willing to serve:
