In the next General Assembly, which will take place on the 18th of May, at 6p.m. (ct) CEST, we will vote on an amendment to our current Charter. We will need 60 people at least to be present at the GA, to vote on the amendment. The amendment concerns the position of Delegate to the Directorate, an office that we propose to remove, due to its lack of responsibilities in the Student Council, and feedback from the previous office holders.

Here are the amendments that will be voted on. The old version paragraphs are followed by the new proposed version, in bold: Continue reading “Charter Amendment Proposal – GA SS 2021”

We’re happy to warmly invite all of you to the first General Assembly (GA) of the winter semester 2020/21, which will take place on Friday, November 27th at 16:00 s.t. via Zoom (link will be provided to you via email). 

As always, the committees and office holders will be giving updates on what they have been up to and are planning for the future. There also are Student Council offices up for election: We are looking for one new mediator, two new delegates to the Board of Studies and one new Executive Organizer.

As announced via e-mail, the second General Assembly of the summer semester 2020 will take place on Friday, July 24th, online. 

Before the start of the actual GA, we will hold a Town Hall meeting, which will follow the concept of a large open Q&A session from 16:00 (s.t.) to apx. 16:50. Multiple members of the UCF staff have announced that they will come to answer all of the questions, concerns and input you’d like to share!

After a quick break, the GA amongst us students will begin at 17:00. Come and join us for current updates from the sc office holders and committees! Simply follow the link you received by e-mail (the Town Hall meeting and GA will both take place in this room) :).

The General Assembly will take place on June 5th, 4pm, via Zoom (hopefully, still working on the technological issues – link will be posted here once we have it). However, this video conference is only meant for discussion and questions – the general updates from the board and committees will be uploaded as videos to the on this website beforehand, so that everyone can watch them. The elections will take place online as usual, as will possible votes on other issues. We ask everyone who wants to run for office to announce their candidacy before the GA, but latest during the GA.
