The Board Decides the Rector Election

As no additional candidates were proposed for the rector election, there will be no election for Principal and Deputy Principal. According to the election regulations § 19 point 12: If only one proposal for a rector/pro-rector candidate is submitted, these are considered elected if more than half of the members of the college's board vote in favour. The next board meeting is on 6 March, and this will be decided then.

On 25 November 2024, the electoral board received the following proposals: Astrid Kvalbein and Morten Qvenild as candidates for principal and Deputy principal.
