Heard of another person running for Finance when in the Roost on Thursday. Someone described them as the "hot guy running for Finance" but couldn't find them in the crowd when I asked them to point him out for me.

That's not to say you're unattractive, FYR, but I do know for a fact that you weren't out last Thursday night.

Maybe not, but you clearly haven't figured out who everyone is yet. You've definitely pinned me as the wrong person.

You pimped yourself for grinds using an email address that when searched for on Facebook leads to your page.
This is less creepy than it sounds and mire out of morbid curiosity.

So what are you running for?

How long does the hustings usually last for? I've class at 2 tomorrow and Thursday so won't be free until three, will the ones for the VP positions have started at that stage?

BuroniKiisu

I'd say it's definitely'll be worth your while popping in after you lectures. These things rarely start bang on the nose and with the VP positions being the last to speak on both days I'd say you'd definitely catch the post-speech questions.

Duddy

Any hustings questions for candidates, email them to returningofficer@nuimsu.com!

Edit: Also via PM:)

Yeah think I will head over afterwards anyway! Is anyone going to be taking note of what people are saying during the hustings? I remember someone (banquo I think) did it last year and posted it on here - it was really useful in case anyone misses what's said or can't make it. I'd do it if it wasn't for the fact I won't be there for all of it!

Imma go send some questions to Duddy now

We can do a bit of a rota I suppose? I'm free on Monday, so I can do it then. Do you stilll want to do it Thursday AdmaialNimitz?

Nah - turns out I misread my calander and Im in 2-3 not 1-2 like I thought...

Hmm I may have a solution...I have/had a digital voice recorder knocking around somewhere...if noone is around tomorrow/thursday then it may be better than nothing.

It's actually illegal to record someone without their permission.

The Media Society have been asked to get involved and record the hustings, so even if you can't make it on the day there should be footage on YouTube a few days before voting (permission gave given casually by all those gathered at the candidates meeting earlier).

Oh I know - had this been the only option left I would have gone trough the RO etc for the various permissions...

There are several such events, namely each week day between now and wednesday Thursday if you're feeling really harsh

Do it on Tuesday when most of the Candidates will be taking part in Amnesty's 'Walk a Mile in Her Shoes'...watching them trying to dodge stuff in heels would be gold!!!
