============================================================
Dear Brothers,
Pi Alpha Phi is pleased to announce that nomination forms are now being accepted for the 2018-2020 Board of Directors. There will be three seats open for election during this year. In accordance with Pi Alpha Phi’s Constitution and by-laws, board members are elected to two-year terms.
We are seeking members from the fraternity who are looking for a professional development opportunity and are willing to serve as our volunteer leaders for the Board of Directors, helping to drive the organization forward through continual improvement, based on our mission and our values. In addition, board candidates should be committed to maintaining the fraternity’s professionalism and will be asked to invest extra time to serve on the board. Ideal candidates will have demonstrated prior service and contribution to the fraternity, and who are highly motivated.
If you know someone who fits the profile, or if you are interested in serving on the Board of Directors, the Fraternity encourages you to complete the board nomination form, which is due by Wednesday, May 30, 2018.
Board Member Expectations
The following are general expectations of all those serving on the Pi Alpha Phi Board of Directors:
Participate in quarterly (potentially monthly) Board of Directors Conference Call (1 hour)
Attend the Midyear Conference
Attend the National Convention
Board Members should expect to volunteer 1-2 hours per week for Pi Alpha Phi. Most employers allow employees 1-2 hours per week during the work day to take care of personal responsibilities, but that is not always the case. Candidates are encouraged to review their supervisor’s expectations prior to taking on the role to avoid difficult conversations later.
All potential candidates are encouraged to review candidacy requirements in Article V Section 2 of the National Constitution. If you are interested in running for a seat, please submit a personal statement (any length, but 1 page single-spaced is recommended) and a link to your personal video to the Elections Committee.
Recommended video criteria:
Length of no longer than 5 minutes
User proper lighting and composition (candidate should be center-framed, shoulders visible)
Use a microphone and ensure a quiet recording environment so that your voice is clearly heard
