IUGA Officer Nominations!

Posted by IUGA 

It’s that time of year again, and IUGA Officer Election are drawing near. I know many of you probably aren’t thinking about becoming an IUGA Officer (at least, I wasn’t this time last year), but take a moment to consider the opportunity. You would be playing a major role in helping out the school, helping other students, and even helping yourself. I know I’ve used stories about my experiences as an IUGA officer during job interviews and it’s always good to have leadership experience on a resume.

No matter what you might think it will be like, you’re going to have fun as an IUGA officer. It’s sort of like working on a group project with friends, except you don’t have a teacher grading you; the motivation comes from wanting to help out your fellow students and make Informatics the best major it can be. I know Informatics is a very unique major with a diverse selection of courses and even more diverse membership. I know we all feel very strongly about our major and we want to see it grow and flourish to become even more successful and recognized. Now is the time to take a leading role in helping Informatics achieve that cohesion and success. Nominate yourself or one of your friends to become an IUGA officer today!

1. Send an email to iuga@u.washington.edu
2. Include who you’re nominating and what position you think they’d be good for.
3. All Nominations are strictly confidential unless otherwise requested.
4. The due date is March 1st midnight for any and all nominations.

If you are confused about the different officer roles or want to know more about a certain position, you can see the current officer roles and their responsibilities at the following link, or simply ask one of the current officers for more details.
