IEC Candidacy? what??

Earlier today I was linked to The Peak’s report on IEC appointments, in which I was briefly mentioned:

Shen gave a less compelling presentation. “Seeing as one day I want to be a lawyer and a judge, I am very capable of being impartial,” said Shen. The Board decided not to ratify him.

I wasn’t planning on discussing the precursors to my application (and I don’t like talking about myself), but this seems like an invitation to do so.

I did inquire about the IEC late last semester (1081), it’s a unique body within the SFSS and the jobs were rather interesting. However, I haven’t really decided to apply as a commissioner, and that was put completely out of contemplation the moment I was elected as the Criminology representative on Forum, since one can’t be on both Forum and the IEC. So for about two weeks, I thought I was going to be a Forum rep, and that’s the end of the story. But that kind of changed a bit on the day IEC appointments were made.
