by Amy Lloyd 26 Sep '25

26 Sep '25

Hi everyone, I am pleased to announce the results of the Class of 2029 M1 Class Council Election. Thank you to everyone who voted - turnout was fantastic! President: Natan Skladnik Academic Representatives: Leanne Kuo & Anthony Kozak Community Outreach Representatives: Noor Imran & Misha Sweet Global Health Liaison Jr: Hareth Al-Hellawi MMSA Lounge Programmer Jr: Danial Almasizadeh MMSA Medicine 1 Representative: Liam Eori Social Representatives: Jaypee Aguilar & Ben Blackwood Sports Representatives: Evan Toth & Chason Nudler Wellness Representatives: Galvin Huen & Amadeus Lackmanec Congratulations to each of you, and to everyone who put their name forward in the election. There were many candidates this year, and I want to assure you all that there will be many other/additional opportunities to get involved in pre-clerkship if this election didn’t go your way (including appointed Class Council positions, Interest Group councils and more). You’ll all be hearing quite a bit less from me as the management of your Microsoft Team will now pass over to your own Class Council. Regardless, I’m always available by direct message on Teams or email if you ever want to get in touch!
