Dear all,
With apologies for the delay in
circulating this (not due to any election irregularities, I hasten to add!), I’m
delighted to report that the election for both posts was carried. Many thanks
for your participation in the electronic election.
We are very pleased to welcome
Aine and Sara to the WIGS committee!
On another note, if anyone still
wishes to attend the joint study day with WISPS (next Friday, 23 May), please
do get in touch. I will circulate a report on the day for the benefit of those
who are interested but can’t make the date.
Cheers,
Lyn

Subject: electronic election for WIGS committee members
Dear all,
It was decided at the Brighton meeting that we could elect
virtually an IT rep to succeed Anna; we also now need to elect a Postgraduate
rep to replace Michi who is stepping down. Could I therefore ask for your
(virtual) participation in an online election? If you are in agreement with the
nominations this will take you precisely no time at all!
We have received nominations for both posts:
Aine McMurtry (Queen’s, Oxford) for IT (as nominated in
absentia at the Brighton meeting)
Sara Jones (Nottingham) for PG rep (nominated and seconded
by committee members)
As it is impractical, I think, to ask that all WIGS members
email me with their votes, could I ask only that anyone who wishes to vote
*against*, to request that we consider further nominations or to object to the
process of virtual election contact me by the beginning of next week (Mon 28
April).
If I receive no objections to the process or to the
candidates, can I ask that we consider both Aine and Sara elected? I will
circulate an email confirming the election if it is carried.
Our warm thanks again to both Anna and Michi for all their
hard work for WIGS.
Thanks in advance for participating in the virtual election,
Lyn
