Volunteer for the NACS Board of Trustees
Value of Volunteering
NACS Board of Trustees play an important role in advancing the collegiate retailing industry and make decisions that positively impact the organization’s members. Trustees benefit professionally by expanding their network, opportunities to exchange perspectives with other leaders, and advance access to industry trends, challenges, and opportunities.

Nomination Process
The NACS Nominating Committee will interview candidates in November and December, and meet in January to finalize the slate for the NACS Board at its CAMEX Board Meeting. Candidates will be informed of their status by the committee chair immediately after the January meeting. The NACS Nominating Committee Chair will call each candidate to inform him or her of the results. The slate will then be presented to the NACS Board of Trustees for approval. Once the slate is approved, an announcement will be made in the very next issue of Campus Marketplace. Ballots will then go out to the membership for a vote, and returned ballots are submitted to NACS’ auditors.
