We will be holding elections for vacancies on the Board of Directors.  The bylaws are set up such that half of the ten-member board turns over every year.  Nine of the members are elected, and one is filled by the past president.  This election we will have four vacancies:  President, Vice President, Director at Large (Membership), and Director at Large (Student Outreach).  The chart below shows how the terms are set up with vacancies for terms beginning in 2021 shown in green.

A nominating committee has been established to take nominations and conduct an election.  Any member can nominate another member for an office, or you can nominate yourself.  If you nominate someone else, please check with that person to make sure that she/he is willing to serve.  Note that any person nominated must be a WTS-Rhode Island member upon presentation of the slate to the membership at the annual board meeting, December 3, 2020.  To nominate someone, please write their name in the green slots above and return the form to me by mail or fax so that I receive it on or before November 13, 2020.  Also please sign your name in the space provided to verify that you are a current member.  The committee will present a slate of nominees for election based on the nominations that are received.  The committee reserves the right to retain a certain amount of flexibility to ensure a balanced slate.  Please feel free to call or email with any questions you may have.
