Question: How competitive is the application process and when do applications normally go out? - Anonymous
There is no application to be a general body member. If you are interested in being more involved and having a leadership role within the club, we will be discussing this more at our GBM next Tuesday. In regards to selection into one of our committees, it truly depends on how many people are interested, which varies per year.
