Each year, alumni of the Harvard Glee Club elect four individuals to serve on the Board of Directors of Harvard Glee Club Alumni (the new name for the Harvard Glee Club Foundation).
We are starting the nomination process and are seeking your suggestions for a few good alumni whom you think we should consider for our 2020-2021 slate of Directors. To nominate yourself or someone else, click the button below and fill out the short nomination form. The Chairman of the Governance Committee, Logan McCarty ’96, will contact you to confirm the nomination and discuss the process.
THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING NOMINATIONS IS JUNE 27, 2020.
INFORMATION ABOUT BEING A DIRECTOR OF HGC ALUMNI:
The Board of Directors sets the general policies of HGC Alumni, approves annual budgets, and authorizes major expenditures.
There are 24 Directors of the Board, 12 Directors elected by the Alumni of the Harvard Glee Club and 12 Directors appointed by members of the Board.
Directors serve for terms of three years and usually are former members of the Harvard Glee Club.
The Board meets twice a year (usually in Cambridge), with periodic meetings by Zoom. While we encourage directors to attend all meetings in person, we recognize that the occasional conflict will preclude a trip to Cambridge — particularly as many of our directors live outside of New England.
Elected directors are the primary conduits to alumni of their eras and assist with our fundraising and alumni engagement efforts.
Some directors serve on one of our standing committees/task forces, with meetings taking place between Board meetings.
The Board seeks to reflect the diversity of generations of alumni and the geographic areas in which alumni reside in selecting candidates for Board service.
We seek candidates who will bring a diversity of personal experiences and professional skills to the board, but what we seek most are individuals who are passionate about the work of the Harvard Glee Club and will help us connect alumni with each and the Glee Club.
IF SOMEONE YOU KNOW (OR YOU YOURSELF) FEELS THIS PASSION, THEN WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!
