Corpus takes SU relationship to ballot!

While Corpus is gripped by election fever, here’s an equally important reminder to consider which way you are voting in the Corpus-Cambridge SU Engagement ballot. This will be happening on Friday and you’ll be able to vote on this at exactly the same link you’ll be sent for voting in the presidential election – it’s easy peasy!

In case you need a quick reminder of the details of what we’re voting on, here’s (a very abridged version of) what the constitution has to say:

(g) In Michaelmas term of every year, there shall be an undergraduate JCR-wide ballot on the nature of the JCR’s relationship with the Cambridge Students Union (hereafter “CSU”).

i. This ballot will only mandate attendance or non-attendance of congregations of CSU in which the President and/or Externals Officer would be entitled to vote.

ii. The ballot will propose that the JCR ‘engage with’ or ‘boycott’ CSU voting congregations.

The two options are “engage with” the CSU Council or to “boycott”. A few weeks ago, we had a virtual debate – you can find some (similarly abridged) minutes here. There’s also contains a recording of the debate if you’re feeling particularly keen (or confused!).

Give me a shout if you have any questions. Hoping for a really great turnout on Friday to get us started on electing a new committee – and deciding how they’ll interact with the Students’ Union!

Yours democratically,
Niamh
