Special Election to be Held in January
The chapter is seeking nominations for a special election for Akron-AAUP Vice-President. The successful candidate will serve a partial term, concluding in May 2021. A description of this position can be found here. You may nominate yourself or someone else for the position. Only chapter members may hold office or participate in chapter elections. Nominations and self-nominations are due by 5 p.m., Friday, January 10th, to elections@akronaaup.org. As a courtesy, please make sure that your nominee is interested in the position prior to nominating them! All nominees will need to provide a brief platform statement addressing their candidacy. All active Akron-AAUP chapter members will receive an electronic ballot for this important leadership position shortly after nominations close. The Nominations and Elections Committee are John Zipp (Chair, Chapter Past President), Kate Budd (Communications Committee), and McKenna Vietmeier (Communications Committee). Being a part of the Akron-AAUP leadership team is highly meaningful service that makes a real difference to the working conditions of faculty across campus. If you are considering running for election, please note that according to the collective bargaining agreement, service to the Akron-AAUP is credited in the same manner as service to all other university committees for merit and RTP purposes. We look forward to hearing from you! -The Akron-AAUP Nominations Committee
