2. When Presidential candidate Enoch Weng responded to a question about the political nature of the SFSS environment.

 

3. When someone called out presidential candidate Kayode Fatoba for misconduct.

 

4. When candidates entertained the possibility of a split vote.

 

5. When it wasn’t even about that cash money.

 

6. When current President Chardaye Bueckert loved open textbooks a lot.

 

7. When Wallace said he was against involving academics in the VP University Relations job. . .

 

8. . . . And some didn’t feel the same way.

 

9. When no one knew how many petitions there were for international student tuition fees and/or the Louis Riel House closure.

 

10. When Presidential candidate Johnny Aether earned the respect of the whole room.
