Independent Candidates Dominate Top Positions
by Darwin Eugenio (June 10, 2015)
Independent candidates dominated the three highest positions of the Executive Council of the Chemical Engineering Society Academic Year 2015 – 2016 after winning the recent elections held last March 29, 2015 at the Unit Operations Laboratory.
President-elect and independent candidate Ann Christine Baual got 305 votes (76.25%), securing the coveted presidential position. Despite being the lone candidate, the election rules require her to garner at least sixty percent (60%) in order to be proclaimed President.
Taking the position of Internal Vice President is another independent candidate, Carla Rae Evaristo, with 349 votes (87.25%), way above the minimum requirement of 60% as set by ChESElect Committee.
