Interest in service as a council representative is offered to continuing council members as a priority followed by solicitation of interest from incoming council members. Appointments are generally balanced to ensure council service on one AW Committee; one or two DIII general committees and two to three subcommittees.

Appointments will be made prior to the convention (to accommodate January committee meetings) in consultation between governance staff and council leadership.

Interest should be forwarded to Dan Dutcher, Bridget Belgiovine or Debbie Kresge by November 1.
