I believe Rafik would like to serve a second term as our Nomcom rep. But of course, any member can put themselves forward for consideration for this or any other of our 'positions' at the end of a term. The defined process under our bylaws is simply that the Exec. Committee appoints the Constituency's representatives to the Nominating Committee by majority vote, with at least four members voting. So if there were more than one candidate, we'd organize a comparative assessment with candidate statements etc. </div><div><br></div><div>Expressions of interest, or alternatively of support for Rafik continuing, would be welcome.
