Explore the Opportunities Afforded by Executive Committee Service

Have you ever wondered how to become more involved in association activities? Would you like to expand field boundaries by creating programming for the annual convention? Do you have ideas for developing MLA Commons as a tool for scholarly and professional collaboration? If so, please consider serving on a division or discussion group executive committee. During the upcoming convention, the executive committees of the MLA’s divisions and discussion groups will take up the matter of nominations for the executive committee elections that will be held in the fall of 2014. Each executive committee must place at least two names in nomination for the regular committee election; at least one of these names must be selected from a list of suggestions put forward by the membership. To suggest yourself for executive committee service or to recommend a colleague, please fill out a brief online suggestion form by 23 December.
