== Composition ==
The members of the [[Executive Committee]] sit on the AB as ex officio members,and its cochairs (the NASPA copresidents) are the AB's cochairs.
Beginning in [[2011 Advisory Board Elections|2011]], some of these members have been chosen through elections. Two members were elected to two-year terms in 2011, and two more in [[2013 Advisory Board Elections|2013]].
Beginning in [[2015 Advisory Board Elections|2015]], we will move to six elected seats (five regional: US Northeast, South Midwest, and West, plus one seat for a Canadian representative, and one at-large seat), and five nominated seats, where outgoing members will recommend successors from their region.
The [[2016 Advisory Board Elections]] will begin with nominations taken in May 2016.
The remainder of the seats on the board are appointed by the Executive Committee, taking into consideration the recommendations of outgoing members, and the need for balance of all kinds in the composition of the board.
