    Hello,

    We are in need of candidates to run for MAGIRT Chair-Elect and Treasurer-Elect.

    The Chair-Elect serves in the Chair-Elect position for one year, then serves as Chair for one year, and as Past-Chair for one year. Primary duties of all three positions can be found in the by-laws.

    The Treasurer-Elect has a three-year term, serving as the Assistant Treasurer for a year, working with the existing Treasurer and getting trained, a second year as the solo Treasurer, and the third year as the Treasurer and training the new Assistant Treasurer. 

    This is an excellent way to prepare for leadership roles in other associations and looks really good on your curriculum vita or resume.

    Please contact Susan Moore at susan.moore@uni.edu if you have any questions or are interested in serving in these important roles.
