The Section's Nominating Committee invites suggestions for at-large positions on the 2025-2026 Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar. There are four of these positions to be filled, each for a three-year term, one being a public member. Two of these positions are currently occupied by members eligible to be re-elected to a second term. Nominees are sought in the categories of judges, academics, practitioners, and public members.
There are three leadership positions to be filled, chair-elect and vice chair, each for a one-year term; and secretary, for a two-year term.
The slate of Section officers and Council members will be presented for election at the Section's business meeting during the ABA Annual Meeting in August.
The deadline for nominations is no later than close of business on Friday, March 7, 2025. All nominations must be submitted through the online Council Nominations form.
