The Student Government Association of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte has entered its Spring election cycle for new officers, with online voting starting on March 23 at 8 a.m.
The seats up for reelection include:
All UNC Charlotte students will have the ability to vote for Student Body President and Vice President, as well as their respective Class President and college-based Senate seats. Voting will take place from March 23 at 8 a.m. to March 24 at 5 p.m. at vote.uncc.edu. Many races for this election cycle are uncontested; both the Sophomore and Junior Class President races have only one candidate, and the races for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, William States Lee College of Engineering, College of Health and Human Services, Belk College of Business, University College, College of Arts + Architecture, and Cato College of Education Senators have fewer or exactly the number of candidates for the available number of seats. Regardless, the race Student Body President and Student Body Vice President still remains competitive, with current Senate President Pro Tempore Dick Beekman and Senator Gabi Hitchcock running against current Senator Jeremiah Williams and Junior Class President Idalis Perez.
When asked about their campaign vision and goals, here is what Senator Jeremiah Williams had to say:
The Williams/Perez campaign joined the Student Body President race hoping to take our passion for community organizing and communication and put it to use for YOU.
More information on the Williams-Perez campaign can be found on their Instagram page or website.
When asked about their campaign vision and goals, here is what Senate President Pro Tempore Dick Beekman had to say:
Gabi and I are thrilled for the opportunity to serve UNC Charlotte as President and Vice President. Throughout our time in Student Government, we have seen first hand the extensive issues that our students face, and feel confident we have the expertise and experience to confront these issues head on.
