The halls of Tomlinson, and its Discord server, initially were eerily silent. Junior Minister (JM) has become the position du jour. It is a new day for Europeia. When asked about our next steps, President HEM told the EBC, "In creating this new position, we didn't want to assume people would inherently want to continue in a role that will, generally speaking, be a little more time-consuming than the old AM role, so we reset all departments."
Initially there was confusion among the citizenry, as the new Junior Minister program restricts JMs membership to two ministries. However, the overall vision appears to be taking hold, as access requests and ministry applications are beginning to flow in. The new system has already begun paying dividends, according to HEM. "I've had several citizens reach out to me personally and ask how to get involved in the new system. That spark of interest is very encouraging to me, as that is a prime objective of my administration."
