The election committee would like to extend a big thank you to all the candidates who participated in the rector election. Their engagement and openness have been crucial for a lively and inclusive debate at the Norwegian School of Sport Sciences. Such democratic processes are essential to ensure that all voices are heard and to strengthen our academic community, says the chair of NIH's election committee, Chris Horbel. Voter turnout was very high, and it is good to see that the result was quite close. Thank you to everyone who voted!
