Each spring the FA holds elections for positions on the Executive Council in accordance with our Elections Procedures. In odd-numbered years, it's half of the EC reps plus all officer and NYSUT/AFT delegate positions. Since this is an even-numbered year, we are hosting elections for the other half of the EC.

Unlike last spring we're no longer fully remote, so the voting procedures will go back to voting on campus for campus-based constituencies and voting by mail for college-wide constituencies. Below are the timeline and positions up for election, with EC reps whose terms are expiring in parenthesis.

If you wish to make a nomination, follow the instructions when completing and returning the official nominations form, available below as a Word file for electronic submission and as a pdf file for printing and signing.
