  COMMITTEE CHAIR-ELECT POSITIONS
  Under the new governance structure, the Chair-Elect (formerly known as the Vice-Chair) of each committee will not have a formal seat on the board until they roll up into the Chair position. Because they collaborate and work hand-in-hand with the chair, this remains an important role. Also, because this member does transition into the Chair role (and a voting board seat) after 1 year, those desiring a Chair-Elect position must complete the board application in order to be considered.
  
  * Note: Chairs-Elect are welcome to sit-in on the virtual calls in order to stay informed on board happenings; however, the Chair of the committee will attend the in-person meetings and relay the information to the Chair-Elect immediately following. Should the Chair not be able to attend, the Chair-Elect may attend as proxy.
