Call for Nominations for 2003 ASHI Officers

Attention ASHI Members:  Nominations are currently being accepted for
the Society Officer positions of President-Elect, Vice President,
Secretary, and Treasurer for 2003.

Any ASHI Member in good
standing may be nominated to any office. Self-nominations are
permitted, and all nominees must agree to serve if elected. ASHI
Nominating and Election Guidelines require that all nominations include
a completed Matrix for Evaluating Nominees. The official revised matrix
is available on ashi.org in the “ASHI Documents” section in “Members
Only.” The matrix can also be obtained by contacting HQ or on
Fax-on-Demand.

A petition of 10 percent of ASHI Members in good
standing can cause the name of a qualified ASHI Member to be added to
the ballot for a specific office.

As nominations are received at
Headquarters, the staff will verify that all nominees have agreed to
serve, and have submitted the necessary background information,
including a response to the above matrix issues. Headquarters will
verify the nominees’ status as ASHI Members in good standing.

Nominations
will close Aug. 31, 2002 and all nomination information will be
distributed to the members of the Nominating Committees.

Ballots will be mailed to the Members by Oct. 31, 2002 and the election will close Nov. 30, 2002.

Ballots
will be counted the first week in December and election results will be
published in the January 2003 issue of the ASHI Reporter.

Comments and questions about the nomination process are welcome. Please contact ASHI Headquarters.
