Call for Committees

If you are new to the section, or are not able to commit a significant amount of time, please consider volunteering to chair or participate in one of the committees.  Many of them require little work, take the burden off the Executive Council, and will help us grow as a section (thus dividing the labor!)  If you are interested in participating please contact us.
