Welcome to the General Elections 2010
Your Students’ Union (SU) is here to make student life at Essex the best it can possibly be. To achieve this, the SU is run by a group of students that are elected each year.
Any student can put themselves forward for election and if they get enough votes, be given the opportunity to lead an exciting, dynamic organisation capable of achieving real change.
So if you think you could lead your SU, this is your big chance....
