Huynh said: Yes, unless your rules say otherwise. Although the president should not serve on the nominating committee nor appoint its members. In fact, according to RONR, he should really have nothing to do with it. Other officers, however, are free to serve on the nominating committee. See, for example, the following language on page 433: Designation of the Nominating Committee. The nominating committee should be elected by the organization wherever possible, or else by its executive board. Although in organizing a new society it may be feasible for the chair to appoint the nominating committee, in an organized society the president should not appoint this committee or be a member of it—ex officio or otherwise. The bylaws may provide that "the President shall appoint all committees except the Nominating Committee . . ." and that "the President shall be ex officio a member of all committees except the Nominating Committee . . ."; the exception should not be omitted in either case. See also pages 456 and 579 for similar provisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
