Program Committee


ASA Bylaws provide directions on the composition of each Program Committee:

 “Each Program Committee shall be selected by the President-Elect two years before the Annual Meeting for which the Committee is responsible and will be reviewed by the Council. The Council shall have the right to suggest modification or to augment the Committee if it deems appropriate. The Program Committee shall consider requests from temporary and informal groups of Association members for opportunities to meet and discuss topics of special interest to them. Three sessions at each Annual Meeting, including the session devoted to the Presidential Address, may at the option of the President-Elect, be under the exclusive control of the President-Elect.”

“The Program Committee shall consist of nine to eleven persons: The President-Elect, serving as Chair, the Vice-President-Elect, the Secretary, and six to eight other members of the Association selected as follows: Each year, the Council will appoint four to six members from a list presented by the President-Elect. Two of these members shall be appointed for two-year terms and others for one-year terms.”
