At-Large Membership Committee

Purpose

The BAITLC At-Large Member Nomination and Selection Ad Hoc Committee is responsible for recommending an end-to-end process for how the selection of BAITLC’s At-Large member will be conducted and how it will be managed going forward. 

Committee Charge

The BAITLC At-Large Member Nomination and Selection Ad Hoc Committee is charged with discussing and ultimately recommending to BAITLC, a holistic process for how BAITLC should conduct a process that leads to the selection of an At-Large member of BAITLC.  This committee will consider the following:

1. Criteria that the At-Large member should meet to be eligible for selection.
2. Criteria for who can nominate At-Large members.
3. The process by which nominations are solicited through the selection of the At-Large member.
4. The ongoing process and guidelines for the At-Large Member including the length of time an At-Large member serves before another is selected, what happens if the At-Large member does not fulfill their term, etc.
5. A specific plan for how to conduct the At-Large member selection this first year, if different from the ongoing process recommended.

Assumptions

The following are assumptions that the committee should make:

1. The At-Large member selected will be a full, voting member of BAITLC.
2. It is BAITLC’s desire that the At-Large member represents a junior member of the Administrative and Business IT community and brings a diverse perspective to the group.
3. It is BAITLC’s desire that the At-Large member learn and grow through the process of participating in BAITLC, thus furthering our BAITLC objective of building next-generation IT leaders for campus.
4. The At-Large member must be selected from one of the BAITLC member units.
5. The At-Large member will not already be a member of another formal IT governance group.
6. This committee is not charged initially with conducting the process; however, in the committee recommendation to BAITLC, the first-year process details should be described including a recommendation for who should conduct the first-year process (which could be the At-Large Member Nomination and Selection Committee if the committee deems this appropriate).

Committee Background

BAITLC has a commitment to helping provide opportunities for the next generation of IT leaders on campus and a commitment to increasing diversity and inclusion across the business and administrative IT units and those we serve.  The addition of an At-Large member to BAITLC provides us a unique opportunity to further one or both of these objectives.
