StuCo Election - Choosing the Student Council

Five days after voting went live on Wednesday 23rd of September, we have the Student Council voting results!

21st of September Monday, the campaign began, obvious due to the inescapable posters. While it mainly featured Tamim's orange ones, there were many others, including some from our own StuCo candidate, Lev!

23rd September Wednesday period nine, everyone in secondary school stopped whatever class they were taking to assemble in the gyms for the election. 

10 candidates were present, knowing that only five would be chosen. Many speeches were made, and of course louder speeches led to louder applause.

By Thursday 3:15 voting closed with the results published on Monday:

Katharina Herndl, Tamim Allafi, Addis Asfaw, Maria Papadimitriou, and Kosta Trajic!

Now, we are to wonder, will this new StuCo board make a change as is always promised, or will they end the year, knowing that they, like so many others, have achieved nothing through the StuCo program?

Hope is there. On Wednesday the 30th of September, was the first of many StuCo meetings to come. And in fact, change is already underway.

A Halloween party is being organised by the Student Association in collaboration with StuCo, encouraged by Dr. Roberts!

And as for the future? Will the project slowly decay, and turn into a forgotten goal, or will it succeed and thrive? It has been one month and projects have already started, because we as students have come together to make them - "Divided we fall, united we stand!"
