AAC&U Board of Directors
Members of AAC&U participate in the association's governance
through the board of directors. Board officers and new directors
are elected at the business meeting of the membership, held
in conjunction with the annual meeting.
Individuals at AAC&U member institutions are invited to suggest member presidents, chief academic officers, deans, and faculty members for service on the board. To recommend an individual, send an e-mail message to Bethany Zecher Sutton at sutton@aacu.org.
AAC&U’s Board of Directors periodically releases official statements on issues of importance to the AAC&U community. See Statement and Letters to find links to recent statements from the AAC&U Board of Directors.

About Public Members
The bylaws of the association, approved in January 1995, allow
for the election of up to three directors who are not affiliated
with a member college or university. These "public members" of the
board provide an informed perspective from outside higher education
on issues the board addresses.
