UWindsor Getting Set For Election

The University of Windsor's new student government will soon be chosen.

Nominations close on Tuesday, with campaigns beginning next week.

Chief Returning Officer with the UWSA April Adams says there are positive vibes surrounding this election. "We held a quorum (in the fall) and we had the highest turnout for that in ten years. So when we had our by-election last semester, it was quite successful, and just four days into this nomination period, I already had 40 packages picked up (by students), and there are only 29 positions."

The student body will elect four executives and 25 people to the board of directors.

The vote is set for March 25 and 26.
