Hey Gang,
It is that time of year again and this site is Maritime Christian Colleges unofficial, yet somewhat official blog. It is a blog to serve the students and the students only, so I declare it official.
Below are the positions for election and the polls for you to vote on. I ask that in voting, that only Maritime Christian College students vote on these polls.
This is not an official poll and will not really be counted, but it is for a second opinion.
The official voting will be declared by whoever you vote for using the ballads, that you will find placed in your mail box. As a former Maritime Christian College Student council representitive, a downfall of the past was sharing votes, and I ask that as a change this year that you keep all votes private.
Pray about your decision, because the people you choose will be using the money the students are given for you, in a way that they feel will meet your needs, in attempt to make a fun filled semester and year for you.
The titles are President, Vice-President and Secretary/Treasurer. The
President would be responsible for the overall running of the Association - calling meetings, organizing events (or delegating jobs for organizing events) and meeting with Kevin to keep him posted on events and progress. The President is also the person who the students should go to if they have any questions or concerns. He/She would then go to Kevin, Fred, the Board if the need ever arose. ( I have added this, keep in mind the President and the vice-presedent should be able to conduct themselves in a expressive manner)
The Vice-President would fill in if the President could not attend an event or organize an event. They would also be actively involved in helping the President plan events, meetings, etc. on a regular basis. (This is added, the vice-president in most senses factually does more than the President, the vice-president books everything, and orders all materials)
The Secretary/Treasurer is in charge of any written reports (students can submit a Board Report before each Board Meeting.) This person would also do the finances, have signing authority on the account at the bank, deposit money, write cheques, etc. (This person should see Penny and she'll give you the bank book, and a letter to go to the bank re signing authority.)( Added: the secretary/treasurer also keeps minutes in the meetings and in student assembly meetings helps the President go over things he may have forgotten to mention)
Either way the first thing for the student council's agenda will be organizing stuff for Exalt 2006, this is intense preparation, there is mostly organizing of the canteen and price negotiations for items and these items come from the councils pocket.
Who among you should be nominated for each position?
If any questions see Darrell Haines and he can inform you on anything that you may have to ask, or even Fred Osbourne or Kevin McKay.
Note: The President cannot be a first year student.
(Added: the vice- president Can be a 1st year but recommended to be a senior student because of all of the organizing required, you need to know where places are.)
Again polls are below, and you will get the official polls in your mailboxes, please vote in secret. Do not let anyone effect your opinions, because the people you pick will determine your year.
This post has past, and the people elected are in another post.
