Dear WWU Faculty Members,

The Elections Committee of the United Faculty of Western Washington asks you to mark Friday, May 20th from 9:30-10:30am on your calendars for the UFWW Annual Meeting, which will be held via Zoom. We also heartily encourage all members to nominate themselves or another member for a position on the UFWW Executive Committee starting in Fall 2022. The window for nominations is now open and will close at the conclusion of the Spring meeting (May 20th). Balloting will be done electronically during Finals Week (June 6th-9th).

All faculty (tenured, tenure-track, and non-tenure-track) who are members of UFWW are welcome to nominate themselves or another member for an open position. The Elections Committee is seeking nominees for the following positions: President, Vice President, Treasurer, and one At-Large position. 

We're happy to talk to anyone interested in a particular position about the details of it. We especially encourage nominees from college-level units on campus that are not currently represented on Exec, including the College of Science and Engineering, College of Fine and Performing Arts, Fairhaven College of Interdisciplinary Studies, and Western Libraries. The Executive Committee welcomes nominations from those with limited experience in union affairs; the only qualifications for service are being a member of UFWW and being willing to serve a two-year term.

Please contact any member of the Elections Committee with questions or concerns: Josh Cerretti (joshinformant@PROTECTED), Nini Hayes (nini.hayes@PROTECTED), Lysa Rivera (softmachine@PROTECTED), or Jeff Young (jyoung757@PROTECTED).

• Friday, May 20th, 9:30-10:30am: UFWW Annual Meeting, nominations for officers must be received by the end of this meeting.
• Monday, June 6th: Ballots emailed to UFWW members.
• Thursday, June 9th: Voting for officer elections closes at midnight.
• By Monday, June 13th: Announcement of UFWW officers for the 2022-2023 Academic Year.
