In an effort to make the process more transparent and to attract a more inclusive pool of candidates, we have changed the nominations process. The Committee on Leadership Development (CLD) invites members of the Association who would like to serve on the Alumnae/i Leadership Council (ALC) in one of the open positions to apply. The application is sent annually and requires some basic biographical information as well as answering a few questions about your interest, skills, etc. The CLD also invites members of the Association to nominate other alums who they think would be strong candidates. 

After receiving all applications in the fall, the CLD will review candidates' interests, experience, and skills. The CLD may contact candidates to ask questions if necessary. After careful and confidential review, the CLD will select a slate of nominees to present to the Association via email and online in the spring. All members of the Association will receive a digital ballot in the spring to vote on the current year’s slate of candidates.
