Hi Class of 2030!

This email marks the beginning of the Class Council Election process. The election timeline is as follows:

• September 8^th – 19^th at 11:59pm: Nomination Period. 
• September 22^nd – 24^th at 5:00pm: Voting Period. Only M1 students will vote in this election, and votes will be submitted via an online ballot.

 To nominate yourself for a position, please fill out the form below which includes:

• The position which you are running for
• A written platform of 300 words maximum (500 word maximum for Class President candidates)
• An optional video speech recording, maximum 3 minutes long (5 minutes maximum for Class President candidates)

NOMINATION FORM: CL2030 Class Council Self-Nomination Form  – Fill out form

I have included a document with a brief overview of the duties for each position. For further details, the MMSA Bylaws and Elections/Referendum Manual can be found on the MMSA website. The positions that are elected as part of the Med 1 Class Council Election are:

• Class President (1 position)
• Academic Representatives (2 positions)
• Social Representatives (2 positions)
• Sports Representatives (2 positions)
• Wellness Representatives (2 positions)
• MMSA Medicine I Representative (1 position)
• Community Outreach Representatives (2 positions)
• Global Health Liaison Junior (1 position) 

Some key rules to note:

• You cannot run together with a classmate and have a shared campaign (i.e. no “slates”), including for positions that have multiple representatives. 
• You can only nominate yourself for one position.
• You cannot nominate classmates for a position. Self-nomination only.
• Class Council Appointed Positions will be filled through an application process after the election, led by your soon-to-be-elected Class President.

Best of luck with the election! If you would like to connect with the Med 2’s who held these positions last year, check out the attached document for their emails.  If you have any questions about the election process itself, please feel free to send me an email or a Teams message anytime.

Best regards,
