Chariot is inviting you to attend our second attempt at this year's Annual General Meeting (AGM). At the AGM you will have your chance to run for a position on the club committee, vote for next year’s committee, ask questions of the current committee to see what they’ve been up to, and give suggestions for things the club can do in the future. We will be holding the meeting both in person on campus and online. We will have pizza, drinks and snacks for those who come in person.


Committee positions that will be elected in the meeting:

  • President: in charge of the club as a whole, managing the executive team and planning events
  • Secretary/Treasurer (combined role): manages the finances and administrative tasks 
  • Lead Editor: handles the publishing of articles on the website, managing the sub editor team and creating the yearly volume
  • Operations Director: primarily manages the club’s social media pages


You will be able to nominate yourself in the club elections at the AGM. If you will not be able to attend the meeting either in person or online, please email us at chariotjournal@gmail.com with the position/s you would like to be considered for and a short paragraph about why you would be a good fit for the position. This will be read to the members in attendance when the elections are run. If you are successful in being elected for the position, we will send an email to let you know.
