2024 UPTE Convention Elections
UPTE is proud to be a member-led union, and our annual convention is an essential part of our union's democratic decision-making. Each campus is assigned a proportional number of delegates to the convention, and at campuses where the number of candidates is equal to or less than the number of seats allotted, nominees are considered elected by acclamation. Thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s convention delegate nomination process from May 21 through June 5, 2024.
The voting period to elect your 2024 UPTE Convention Delegates has concluded. We extend our gratitude to all candidates for their participation. We are thrilled to announce the elected delegation representing your chapter at this year's UPTE Convention, which will be held in San Diego, California, from Saturday, September 28, to Sunday, September 29, 2024. This convention is a unique opportunity for us to come together, share our experiences, and shape the future of our union. We look forward to your active participation.
