Chapter Leadership

The chapter consists of its members — you! Growing the membership, pursuing member grievances, and other day-to-day business of the chapter is carried out by the executive committee, which consists of three primary officers, four officers-at-large, and representatives to the system-wide Delegate Assembly — all elected by the chapter membership for three-year terms. Our current Executive Committee is listed below; if you would like to contact us, you are encouraged to use the form on the contact page.
