MNSPJ is seeking candidates for the 2020-21 board year. Join us!
Up for election are four board seats. Also up for election are the executive board positions: president-elect (the elected officer will serve as president 2021-2022), board secretary and treasurer. Executive board seats are one-year terms.
The chapter is led by a diverse, volunteer board of media professionals, past and present, who are driven by a desire to promote and protect quality journalism and the public’s right to know.
This year’s election will begin on Saturday, June 20, with candidate statements due by Monday, June 15. Results of this year’s election will be announced at the MNSPJ annual meeting on Monday, July 20.
The annual meeting will be held via Zoom — please contact us if you’d like to attend.
Any member in good standing with the Society of Professional Journalists can run for office. To become president-elect, a member must have served one year on the board. Interested candidates should send a biography and short statement of candidacy to minnesota.spj@gmail.com by June 15.
