The 2004 College of Fellows Nominating Committee is soliciting members for 2006–2008 bursar. Interested members should include a letter providing a statement of interest (no longer than two standard pages) with name, address, and telephone number. The applicant also should provide a brief biography, list of significant AIA activities and accomplishments, and letters of reference from three fellows forwarded to the chair of the nominating committee.

The vice chancellor chairs the nominating committee comprising a past chair of the Fellows’ jury, a former AIA Board member, a current COF regional representative, and a COF member-at-large. The nominating committee will review the qualifications of all candidates and recommend a nominee to the College for election at the annual business meeting in June 2006.
