The Brandeis Student Union has announced the start of its next election cycle. The Student Union is managed by students and advocates for a safe, equitable and engaging environment. Getting involved, meaning running for a position or casting a vote, is one way that students have meaningfully shaped Brandeis student life and ensured students' voices are heard. In a March 17 email to the Brandeis student body, Student Union Secretary Rachel Gao ’25 announced that there are 28 seats up for grabs during this spring cycle.

The election period begins on March 24 with information sessions for students to learn whether the Student Union is a good fit for them. Candidates will announce their positions on March 28 and the campaigning period is from March 31 to April 7. On April 7, the Student Union will send out ballots via email, for students to cast their votes.

Key positions up for election include the head treasurer, president, vice president, Brandeis Academic Committee representatives, class senators, Allocation Board seats and more.
