Getting Ready to Vote for BUSU!

Getting Ready to Vote for BUSU! 

By Ronnie Neiman

 After a somewhat short nomination period, it is almost time to head to the polls to vote for BUSU, after the campaigning of course. Voting takes place March 9-10th. The results will be announced later on March 10th. 

By voting, students are participating in the democratic process. The vote for leaders to represent them and their ideas, and the leaders support the citizens' interests. 

It is important for students to vote, so that their voices are head for student matters. Electing someone to become the students voice in certain matters helps voices be heard in a more concentrated manner.
