Leadership Opportunities Available

Trustee, and alternate trustee nomination deadlines are fast approaching. April 15 is the deadline to submit to the AALAS office nominating petitions to run for vice president-elect, district trustee or alternate trustee. Three-year terms commence at the close of the AALAS 2008 National Meeting in Indianapolis.

To be placed on the ballot, candidates must meet the eligibility requirements. Vice president-elect candidates must submit nominating petitions with the signatures of at least 200 AALAS national members. District or alternate trustee candidates must submit nominating petitions with the signatures of at least 25 current AALAS national members from within their district. Fax completed petitions to the national office at 901-753-0046 or email scanned petitions to Amy Sauls (amy.sauls@aalas.org).

Eligibility information, a list of open positions, and a link to download the vice president-elect candidate packet or the trustee/alternate nominating petition can be found on the AALAS site. Log in, and then choose "Leadership" from the Association menu. Under related links, click "Leadership Nomination Information."
