The UWSA Board of Directors called an election on March 28 to fill four director vacancies. Only three nominations were submitted by the deadline on April 10, so an election is not required; Mifrah Abid,ÌýLewis Fraser, and Sarah Landy will be acclaimed as directors, effective immediately, for remainder of the vacant terms.
I’d like to thank Mifrah, Lewis, and Sarah, as well as Angela Rooke and Tim Ireland who were recently elected to the Board at a special meeting, for stepping into this essential role. We’d also like to thank everyone who nominated candidates, attended the special meeting, or otherwise participated in the process of repopulating the Board over the last few weeks.
I look forward to working with all directors—and all members—to advance the Staff Association’s mission and strategic plan, and encourage all members to consider running for the Board in the regular fall election.
