Dear FSU Member,

The FSU Elections Committee is pleased to announce the candidates for the Fall 26 Non Tenure Track Faculty Representatives special election to the FSU Executive Committee. Following the nomination period, there are two candidates running for this position: Tony Vandermeer, Senior Lecturer III, Africana Studies and Peter Lert, Lecturer, Mathematics. Please note that there were no nominations for the Pre Tenure Tenure Track position. The special election for this rank has been rescinded and will be added to the standard election cycle in Spring 27. Please note as well that only FSU members in the non-tenure track faculty rank will be eligible to vote in this election.
