Selecting excellent leadership is the single most important activity any organization can undertake to insure its continued good health. The opportunity for you to help APS to begin this process is provided below. We hope that you will make use of the nomination form (see below) to do this. All nominations will be reviewed by the members of the APS Committee on Committees as they draw up a slate of candidates for 2012 Committees.
