CALL FOR NOMINATIONS: AALS SECTION ON CLINICAL LEGAL EDUCATION

The Section on Clinical Legal Education is seeking nominations for two or three openings on the Executive Committee beginning in January, 2009. These will be for three-year terms. In addition, the Section is seeking nominations for the 2009 Chair Elect, whose one-year term also begins in January, 2009, and includes a three-year commitment [a year as Chair-Elect, a year as Chair, and a year as Ex Officio Chair].  Nominees should be from AALS member schools since the AALS requires the Executive Committee to be comprised of faculty from AALS member schools.

Nominations for Chair-Elect are not restricted to current members of the Executive Committee. As a result, you can nominate a current executive committee member or any other person, including yourself, whom you believe is qualified for the position.  If you wish to nominate someone for the Executive Committee and/or for Chair-Elect, or if you wish to nominate yourself for either position, please send the nominee's (or your) name, along with a brief statement in support of the nomination, to Nina W. Tarr .

The Executive Committee typically meets at the AALS Annual Meeting in January and at the AALS Clinical Conference in the spring.  Conference calls are held in between meetings. The deadline for submitting nominees is Wednesday, October 29, 2008.
