Call for nominations (especially self-nominations) for UFF-FIU Officers and Senators
UFF-FIU annually elects its officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer) and about 34 UFF-FIU Senators, who together comprise the Chapter Council. Officers and Senators must be dues-paying members of the UFF-FIU Chapter. The duties of the Chapter officers can be found in the Chapter By-laws on the UFF-FIU website. Many who are new to union activity run for Senator. The role of Senator is a good way to contribute and learn more about the union.
- The duties of a UFF-FIU Senator are to attend Chapter Council meetings (virtually; two-hour meeting about two or three times per semester, except during Summer), serve on a Chapter committee, and attend the Statewide UFF Senate (once in Fall on a weekend for two half-days in-person, and once, virtually, in Spring).
- The term of office for Chapter Officers and Senators is one year, beginning on the first day of Summer term.
The UFF-FIU Elections Committee solicits nominations (especially self-nominations) for Chapter Officers and (especially) UFF-FIU Senators.
Please send your nominations/self-nominations to the UFF-FIU Elections Committee at elections@uff-fiu.org by the deadline of Friday, February 21.
