Hello everyone! Hope you're all recovered from your graduation ceremonies and enkais! :)
.
It has come round to that time of year again for Gunma to choose it's new GAJET council, that will serve for 2008/2009. This is an annual, democratic event, which takes place in several stages:
.
1st - GAJET has an open call for candidates. (that's now!)
2nd - GAJET has 2 weeks where you can email to vote for which candidate you'd like to occupy each position (27th-10th of April)
3rd - GAJET announces the new council several days later.
.
So, to begin - if you want to be a council member, the only obvious requirement is that you are recontracting. Beyond that, each position requires a differing set of skills. In order to nominate yourself for candidacy, you need to email me at gajetpres AT gmail.com, stating which position you would like stand for.
.
Now, for a list of the positions:
.
- President
- Vice President*
- Secretary*
- Treasurer
- Gunmania Editor*
- Webmaster*
- Regional representatives, of which there are 4,
-- Tobu,
-- Tone,
-- Seibu,
-- Chubu,
-- Agatsuma*
.
There is also the position of "social representative", which wasn't filled this year, however, it can be filled if there is a willing candidate.
.
The basic idea of each job is largely explained by the name, but I have more detailed descriptions on hand for anyone that wants them. They are quite wordy though, so please email me and I'll forward them to you if you're interested in a position. Once again, that email address is gajetpres AT gmail.com.
.
Please note that GAJET will NOT accept candidacy applications through any other means, such as posting comments to this site. The elections can involve a large volume of messages back and forth so it's necessary to have them all in one place.
.
*** Several of the GAJET council from the current year have expressed an interest in running for their positions again. They are Erin Kessler (Gunmania editor), Sean Barry (the Agatsuma rep), Lyle Kozloff (Webmaster) and Kelli Scott (who performed both secretary and vice president duties). In addition, several other council members from this year are undecided. These council members will stand as candidates by default, in the interest of fairness.
