Nomination Form
The purpose of the Nomination Form is to encourage your peers to run for a position if you think they will be a good candidate; the form is a great way to engage with the SGA Election Process if you are hesitant about running yourself.
The form will require the name and email of the student you are nominating. The "Senate Seat" and "Why" sections are optional but highly recommended.
Once the form is submitted, the Director of Senate, Cintya Felix, will contact the individual.
