- 4. Campaign
- You'll need to convince other students to vote for you! Students running to be an Elected Officer will be briefed at the compulsory Candidate Briefing. Those running for Society Committee Member positions can campaign at a more local level and therefore do not need to attend the Candidate Briefing
