The Executive Committee of the Senate of York University has issued its annual call for expressions of personal interest in, and suggestions for, nominations for membership on Senate committees and other positions elected by Senate. For details, see the dedicated “Elections” page accessible from the Senate website.
Expressions of personal interest and the recommendation of other individuals can be transmitted by means of a form created for this purpose. Specific criteria for each of the positions should be reviewed carefully before the forms are submitted. Individuals must be available to serve at the standing meeting times of committees, and other criteria apply.
Questions about any aspect of the nomination and election process may be addressed to Cheryl Underhill, senior assistant secretary, University Secretariat, by email at underhil@yorku.ca.
