Student Bar Association Class Director Elections
Posted: Sun Sep 01, 2019 4:33 pm
Hello all!
The Student Bar Association (SBA) is seeking motivated leaders to be 1L, 2L, and 3L Class Directors for the Classes of 2020, 2021, and 2022, respectively.
SBA is composed of 4 Directors from each class, and 1 LLM Director, as well as alternate Directors from each class. Alternate Director positions are offered to students who do not receive the plurality of the votes. Alternate Directors are official class directors, however, an Alternate Director votes in meetings only when an elected Class Director is absent.
SBA Directors are representatives of the law school student body and must be available to attend bi-monthly SBA meetings. Directors manage the law school's mandatory student activity fee by voting in meetings and creating budget policies that oversee the allocation of these student funds to law school student groups, as well as supervise the official calendar of law school student events and activities. Additionally, Directors have the power to problem solve and implement initiatives in all different areas of student life in order to promote the general welfare of the entire law school student body.
If you are interested, please pick up a petition from the SBA bulletin board located by the SBA office (O'Brian 207). They will be available Tuesday, September 3rd and Wednesday, September 4th. ALL petitions are due on Friday, September 6th at 5pm, to the SBA office and/or an SBA E-Board member. Campaigning will take place on Monday, September 9th and Tuesday, September 10th. Students will then vote for their student class directors via an online email link on Wednesday, September 11th and Thursday, September 12th.
If you have any questions, please reach out and ask. If you need any clarifications about being a Director or about SBA please let me or any other E-Board member know. Emails are listed below:
Abisha Vijayashanthar (President) - abishavi@buffalo.edu
Rina Hernandez (Vice President) - rinahern@buffalo.edu
Dee Anthony (Parliamentarian) - aldiamaj@buffalo.edu
Eliza Frank (Treasurer) - elizafra@buffalo.edu
Savannah Figueroa (Events/Fundraising)- sfiguero@buffalo.edu
Good luck to everyone this semester!
