VP Academic Position

– decided that it is best for the organization if we don’t have someone gone for a 2 month period

– will offer 2 options: either stay in the position at full capacity until April or we will have to find a replacement

– if staying on at full capacity until April is possible, there will be no need to find a replacement

– if a replacement is necessary, we will send out an email informing students that a position is available and decide from there how to proceed (elections vs. appointing someone)
