As with last year's election process, all candidates will be presented to the AAPG membership via two brief videos:
- One video, a "mini-bio" featuring personal photos, provides a quick look at the candidate's professional career as well as their involvement with AAPG.
- The second video features a Q&A format, allowing the candidates a chance to share their thoughts, priorities and visions for AAPG.
The videos will be published on the AAPG website in late March.
Also, printed material will be included in the March EXPLORER that provides biographical information for all candidates, as well as their responses to the statement, "Why I accepted the invitation to be a candidate for an AAPG office."
(Associate and student members are not eligible to vote — but to upgrade your membership status, contact your delegate or an AAPG member services representative.) Voting opens on the AAPG website on March 28.)
