To: Members of the Latino and Latina Roundtable
As per our by-laws, the Latino and Latina Roundtable will be electing seven at-large members at its membership meeting on Saturday, November 16th to serve on the board for the next two years. Nominations took place at our General Membership Meeting on Saturday, October 19th (the nominees are listed at the bottom of this message). Our election meeting will take place Saturday, November 16 at 1 PM at the Solidarity Center (1460 E. Holt Ave., Entrance #3 – Room 6 in Pomona).
To be able to vote in the election set for November 16th, you have to be a paid member in good standing (30 days prior to the election). In order to vote at the November 16th election, you also must be present at the meeting. If you have been nominated for the board, as a nominee you should be prepared to make a one-minute statement as to your involvement in the Latino and Latina Roundtable and why you want to be on the board. Any nominee that does not show up to the meeting on Nov. 16th and make a statement will be taken off of the list. We will use computers to vote and a ranked choice system that will be explained at the meeting.
If you have any questions, please contact Jose Calderon (Jose_Calderon@pitzer.edu) or Angela Sanbrano (sanbranoangela@gmail.com).
The nominees are as follows:
1. Melanie Andreo

This is to inform you that the Latino and Latina Roundtable board has decided to move our meeting (that was originally set for this Saturday, October 12th) to Saturday, October 19th at the same time (1 PM) and the same place (the Solidarity Center (1460 E. Holt Ave., Entrance #3 – Room 6 in Pomona). This change came as a result of requests from our members who cited that there are three major events in Pomona that day that our members want to attend: the Pomona 5K, the Indigenous Day at which Dolores Huerta is scheduled to be at, and a “College-Going Families” Day at Cal Poly led by Lorena Marquez and the Pomona Leadership Network. We support all theses events and will support all of them including Indigenous Day at Ganesha Park from 10 AM to 7 PM. At our October 19th, we will proceed as planned to take nominations for seven at-large open positions on the LRT board – and you can send in your nomination or that of someone else through e-mail (see the message below). Remember, you must be a paid member of the organization to nominate and to be able to have a final vote in November election. If you are not a member but want to become one, please send your request through e-mail to Jose Calderon or Angela by November 17th.
