Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6

“There are three classes of individual membership in the Society: student member, regular member, and senior member. Each student, regular, and senior member (collectively, the "voting membership") is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to the membership for a vote. Student and regular members may not serve as a director or officer of the Society. A senior member may serve as a director or officer of the Society. Certain members of the Board of Directors are elected by the voting membership.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7A

“The Board of Directors all are elected by the voting membership, except the President, First Vice President and the Immediate Past President.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11

“The 990 is reviewed by the chief staff officer of the Organization. It is then presented to the Finance and Investment Committee for review. Once the Finance and Investment Committee has reviewed the document, it is presented to the Board of Directors.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12C

“All board members are required to sign a conflict of interest statement annually. This policy requires that they disclose any current conflicts, as well as requiring that any conflicts that arise during board or committee activities must be disclosed at that time.”

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15

“The Compensation Committee reviews comparison data drawn from the American Society of Association Executives published salary data. Based on this information, salary ranges are set for each position.”
