The steering committee (or SC) is the consultative and deliberative body that guides the association. It is made up of voting members of the association, and they weigh in on most issues of substance regarding the ACC’s role in the CC community.

Notice: Two Vacancies to be filled in the ACC Steering Committee
At present, there are two vacancies on the committee. These are to be filled in an upcoming election. Right now, we are encouraging all voting members of the association who are not currently on the SC to consider putting themselves forward as candidates. 

If you voted in the most recent election for chair of the association, then you know you are a voting member. If you were recently granted voting rights by the association after that election, then you too are a voting member, and are eligible to put yourself forward. If you are unsure as to your voting status, please contact the secretary of the association (more below) for clarification.

Ideally, candidates will have a primary research focus on CC, and will be involved in the life of the association or the community. Candidates will have attended recent conferences, be active in the field, and perhaps  have contributed to the running or hosting of a community event (or are thinking of doing so). 

We want the SC to be as diverse as the community it represents. If you believe your voice should be heard, or that you represent a constituency within the community that is underrepresented at the committee level, then please do consider putting yourself forward as a candidate. 

We are accepting candidacy proposals from now until midnight, March 15th, and the election will be held shortly afterwards. Please indicate your intention to stand as a candidate by email, to the secretary of the association:  secretary@computationalcreativity.net
