Hello! This is Anshu and Kathryn (with two syllables), and we are the new Aediles who will run the blog. Elections have taken place, and these are our new officers:
Quaestors: Analise and Ben G. Tribunes: Kirby Ann and Will Aediles: Kathryn and Anshu Praetors: Bryant (with a 't', like Kobe Bryant, haha) and Elizabeth Ne. Censors: Liz and Blake Consuls: Mitch and Graham Interesting tidbit about this election: During the election for Aedile, there was a three-way tie between Katherine (with three syllables), Aubrey, and Anshu - twice! After votes from both the tribes and the individual citizens themselves both came back in ties, the final vote went to the Senatus - or senate - for the first time in academy history. The Senatus, comprised of Academy faculty and staff, selected Anshu as the second Aedile to serve alongside Kathryn. Thank you to all the candidates! Officers, good luck!
