General Objective: Submit nominations to the AAUP Board (usually by March) for candidates to fill vacancies for five positions: a president-elect; a treasurer-elect; and three members at large on the 2011-12 Board of Directors. In proposing these nominations please keep in mind the following considerations:
- The need to solicit names of candidates from the membership.
- The demonstrated interest, contributions to the AAUP, and recognized competence of potential candidates.
- Given the pension funding issue, a treasurer-elect should have some pension fund expertise.
- That Board candidates should represent the diversity of the AAUP membership. Press size and its location are factors. In addition, gender, professional experience, and other personal factors should all be considered. Specifically, please also note that an incoming president from a press with a journals program might be worth considering, since neither I nor the president-elect represents that constituency.
The by-laws also stipulate that after serving her/his term as an officer, the Treasurer shall serve for a third year as a Director-at-Large.
The 2012-13 Board will comprise the following:
Officers:
President Peter Dougherty
President-elect To be nominated
Past President MaryKatherine Callaway
Treasurer Tim Doyle
Treasurer-elect To be nominated
Directors-at-Large:
Continuing Meredith Babb, Ellen Faran, Darrin Pratt, Charles Watkinson, and Anna Weidman
New Three to be nominated (to replace Dave Hamrick, Carol Kasper, and Barbara Kline Pope)
