Intelligence whistleblower Edward Snowden is to stand for the post of student rector at Glasgow University.

The nomination of the former US intelligence officer, who has temporary asylum in Russia, was arranged by a group of students through his lawyer.

Elections for the three-year post will take place next month.

Other candidates for rector are cyclist Graeme Obree, author Alan Bissett and Scottish Episcopal clergyman Kelvin Holdsworth.

Previous rectors include Winnie Mandela and Mordechai Vanunu. The position is currently held by former Liberal Democrat leader Charles Kennedy.

'Brave whistleblower'

Glasgow University said all the nominees had personally agreed to take part in the election.

Mr Snowden is a former US National Security Agency (NSA) contractor.

He now lives in Russia after fleeing the United States via Hong Kong in May, having revealed extensive internet and phone surveillance by US intelligence.

A spokesman for the group of students who arranged Mr Snowden's nomination said: "Edward Snowden's candidacy is a unique opportunity to show our gratitude to a brave whistleblower.

"He has shown a spirit of daring and self-sacrifice that is virtually absent in our public life.

"We call on Glasgow University students as individuals, and all student bodies committed to ending state intrusion into our private lives, to declare their support for Edward Snowden's candidacy."

The rector is the elected representative of the students and serves for a period of three years.

Among the post-holder's key duties are to attend the university court, which administers resources, work with the students' representative council, and to bring student concerns to the attention of university management.

據英國廣播公司1月21日報道，美國國家安全局“棱鏡”項目曝光者愛德華?斯諾登將于2月競選英國格拉斯哥大學學生校長（student rector）。

該提名是格拉斯哥大學學生團體通過斯諾登的律師安排的。該學生團體發(fā)言人說：“提名愛德華?斯諾登是我們向這位勇敢的泄密者致敬的特殊機會。他所表現出的無畏和自我犧牲的精神，在今天的公共生活中幾乎不存在了。我們呼吁格拉斯哥大學的學生共同致力于終止政府干預私人生活，支持斯諾登作為候選人。”

其他候選人包括蘇格蘭自行車手格拉爾米?歐伯利、作家艾倫?比塞特和蘇格蘭圣公會牧師凱爾文?霍爾茨沃思。屆時斯諾登將與他們一決高下。

該職位任期三年，主要職責是出席格拉斯哥大學行政評議會、與學生代表委員會一起工作、讓學生關注的問題得到學校管理層的重視。目前該大學的學生校長是前自由民主黨領袖查爾斯?肯尼迪，其前任包括南非前總統(tǒng)曼德拉的前妻溫妮?曼德拉和以色列核工程師莫迪凱?瓦努努。

斯諾登目前正在俄羅斯境內避難。斯諾登的律師、俄羅斯社會院成員庫切列納近日透露，一些美國官員聲稱要對斯諾登進行肉體迫害，斯諾登擔心自身生命安全，打算向俄方面尋求保護。
