Call for Nominations

The 2008 CCCC Nominating Committee invites nominations for the posts of Assistant Chair, Executive Committee (six members), and 2009 Nominating Committee (five members). The Nominating Committee seeks to identify CCCC members who are committed to the organization and willing to do its work. The post of Assistant Chair involves a four-year commitment, beginning in December 2008. During the first year of the term, the Assistant Chair also serves as Program Chair for the 2010 CCCC Convention.
