committee  
    Fire Escape is an entirely student-run organization that is governed by a nine-person Committee. The Committee meets at least once every two weeks, and is in constant communication via e-mail. Together, its members keep the organization running. E-mail the Committee.
 
    ELECTIONS  
   

The Committee is elected by Fire Escape members at the end of Winter quarter, and serves through the following Winter. Any member of Fire Escape may run for office. (What is a Fire Escape "member"?) Candidates may suggest themselves for particular positions when running, but the Committee itself will collectively decide, once it has been elected, which role each member will fill.

 
    MEETINGS  
    The Committee meets every week, on Wednesdays at 6:00PM in Cox Lounge in the basement of Stuart Hall. Have something to discuss with the Committee? Want to attend? Send us an e-mail and we'll fill you in the details. fecommittee@listhost.uchicago.edu
