Any member of the SSE can nominate another member of SSE for Council. In each annual election, nominations are solicited for the President (three-year term, serving as President-elect, then President, then retiring president), and two Councilors (three-year term). In addition, nominations are requested for Executive Vice President in 2010 (three year term). Nominations for two Vice-Presidents (one from North America and one from elsewhere, two-year term) will be sought in 2011, and for Secretary in 2012 (both three-year terms).

To nominate a member for the Council or for an officer position (in 2010, President and Executive Vice President), please send the name and contact information of the nominee plus a short statement (<200 words) explaining the reasons for the nomination, discussing the qualifications of the candidate and their ability to serve as an SSE representative.

The Nominations Committee of the SSE will consider all nominated candidates and determine a single slate to present to Council for ratification.  By constitution, this slate must consist of two candidates for each office, except for the offices of Executive Vice-President and Secretary who may run uncontested.

In selecting candidates, the nominations committee will give due consideration to publication and service history, representation of the various fields of interest to the Society, and representation of the diversity of the SSE membership.

For more details, please see the SSE Constitution - www.evolutionsociety.org/download/sse_constitution.pdf.

Respectfully submitted for the Committee, Dr. Judy Stone, SSE Secretary
