Now that we’re halfway through the Spring term, the end of this school year is rapidly approaching, and that means UBCAni Executive Elections at our Annual General Meeting (AGM) is happening next friday, March 13th. Come on out to meet the faces of UBCAni next year and what they intend to do for the club, vote, and enjoy some free pizza for your troubles!  (Pizza will be free for members, and $2 for non members.)

Thank you to all the candidate nominees! Here they are in all their uncontested glory. However, since we still have three available positions, we’re opening the floor to anybody who wants to run as a free for all, as long as they prepare a 5-minute speech, presentation, or video to introduce themselves and why they would make a good candidate.
