SBA Elections - Looking for a Few Good Students!

Post by Student Life »

Hi friends! I hope you all had a fun and restful break. SBA will be holding Executive Board position elections these next two weeks.

The Student Bar Association is the elected body that represents student interests at the University at Buffalo School of Law. SBA serves as a channel for the student body and seeks to establish open communication channels and bonds amongst the student body with the administration, faculty and legal professions in the community.

SBA functions as an umbrella organization for many of the student clubs, academic journals, and moot courts. The SBA is directed by SUNY, University, and School of Law policies and an elected Senate of student representatives, whose mission is to allocate funding collected from student activity fees. These funds are then allocated to student organizations for events. In additional SBA hosts a number of social and education events to enhance the student experience.

Petitions are now up on the SBA bulletin board right in between the kitchen and the SBA office on the 2nd floor. If you are interested in this great opportunity, please pick one up and get some signatures. (At least 65 signatures from the entire current law school student body - 80 signatures if running for the Office of President). Directions are on the petitions so please follow them carefully. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask! Petitions are due next Friday, March 29th at 5:00pm. I have attached a few more important dates below:

Monday, March 25 - Petitions are available for pick up at the SBA bulletin board
Friday, March 29 - Petitions are due by 5 pm
Monday, April 1-Tuesday, April 2 - Campaigning for elections for eligible contenders
Tuesday, April 2 - SBA E-Board Election Town Hall Meeting
Wednesday, April 3 - Thursday, April 4 - Online Voting

Good luck and have a great rest of the week!
Your SBA E-Board
