The recruitment of academic representatives is done every year during the 4th week of the winter semester and the position is held for an entire academic year. All enrolled students are privileged to declare candidacy, unless they are on disciplinary probation. Student Volunteers are encouraged to support an educational environment, represent the student body appropriately and should show good citizenship, both on and off campus.
