On August 6, 2019, TEI’s Board of Directors appointed the Institute’s 2019-2020 Nominating Committee, whose role is to nominate the three senior officers (Senior Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer) and eleven regional vice presidents for 2020-2021. (The Senior Vice President becomes President by operation of the By-Laws.)
The Nominating Committee will meet during the Annual Conference in New Orleans in October, and in anticipation of its meeting, the committee is seeking recommendations of potential candidates for consideration. If you would like to recommend someone, please feel free to contact a member of the committee, whose names and email addresses are listed below. (Note: Two names are listed for each region; the first name is that of the region’s member, and the second is that of the region’s alternate.) Suggestions may also be sent to the Institute’s Executive Director at edicker@tei.org.
