Committees
The Organizing Committee for the 35th Biennial Symposium supports the meeting by advising on opportunities for national and local member involvement and helping to encourage broad participation. The committee also assists in identifying potential sponsors and supporting fundraising efforts. In addition, members provide regional insight by recommending activities, tours, and cultural experiences, and by contributing to the planning of social events such as the Gala Dinner and other program highlights.
