The American Association of University Women in conjunction with Running Start will be facilitating a daylong workshop in early March. This workshop will give female students the tools to run a successful political campaign.

We are turning to faculty today to reap the maximum benefits of this grant. We are asking faculty to consider nominating up to five highly motivated female students who would benefit from this experience. Elect Her is open to any young woman who is interested in developing leadership skills-not just those who are interested in political office.

The Elect Her Planning Committee in partnership with the Chellis House, the college’s women’s resource center, would be very grateful if you could send in your nominations by December 7th.  Nominations can be sent to the Elect Her Planning Committee at rabdelhamid@middlebury.edu.  We will be in contact with the nominees ourselves.  Feel free to contact us via email with any further questions.

Best,

Elect Her Planning Committee
