ASAS Committees
ASAS has five types of committees or special representative
assignments: 1) Board Committees, 2) General Committees/Working Groups,
3) Special Representative appointments to other groups, 4) Awards
Committees and 5) Annual Meeting Program Committees. Each type of
committee or special representative appointment provides a chance to
contribute to the society and to become involved in the society
leadership.
Committee assignments are for three years and committee terms are for July to July. Please contact us at asas@asas.org throughout the year if you are interested in serving on committees. We try to ensure that anyone interested in serving on a committee has that opportunity.
