Deadline Monday, November 15, 2010
The Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction (CALI) is seeking nominations of qualified and enthusiastic individuals to fill vacant positions on its Board of Directors. If you know of someone who would like to contribute to the research and development, strategic planning and governance of CALI, then consider nominating them for the CALI Board of Directors. It would be a good idea to clear it with the person first to make sure they want to be nominated. Self-nominations are acceptable.
Nominations should be accompanied with the phone number, email address and institutional affiliation of the nominee. Also, please send along a current CV or a link to home page/bio for the nominee.
Directors are required to attend two meetings a year (June during the CALI Conference and January during AALS). In addition, Directors serve on committees at the behest of the President of the Board and work on other projects and issues relating to the governance, strategy-setting and promotion of CALI’s mission and activities. Directors terms are for three years at which time their service is evaluated by the Nomination Committee along with other nominees. Service on the CALI Board is voluntary and gratis. Travel expenses for the Board meetings can be covered by CALI if institutional support is unavailable.
The list of all nominees will be submitted to the Nomination Committee who will determine a slate of candidates to be presented to the CALI Membership at the Annual Luncheon held on Saturday, January 8, 2011 during AALS in San Francisco, CA. All nominees will be contacted during the week of November 15. Nominees who are chosen by the nominating committee are required to attend the CALI Board meeting on Saturday, January 8, 2011 in San Francisco, CA.
CALI is a dynamic and forward-thinking 501(c)-3 non-profit corporation with big plans and big ideas. CALI is supported primarily by membership dues from over 200 US law schools.
