When the executive committees of the MLA’s forums meet during the January 2018 convention in New York, they will take up the matter of nominations for the executive committee elections that will be held in fall 2018. Though the executive committees are responsible for making nominations, each committee is required to nominate at least one candidate who has been suggested by the wider MLA membership (unless there are too few suggestions). Members are therefore encouraged to submit suggestions for the 2018 forum executive committee elections by filling out a brief suggestion form. Suggestions received by 18 December 2017 will be forwarded to the executive committees in time for their convention meetings.
