The General Alumni Association has announced the names of
those alumni nominated to serve as officers and members of
its Board of Directors.
Patrick L. McCarthy '63 has been re-appointed executive
secretary. Michael H. Shanahan '78 has been re-appointed
treasurer. GAA bylaws do not require yearly nomination to
this office.
The nominations for the board were selected in accordance
with the GAA bylaws, which allow for no more than 20 alumni
to be chosen annually for three-year terms, at least 10 of
them as at-large members, and 10 of them drawn one each from
the immediate graduating class and from each third class
preceding the graduating class.
Although this slate of candidates represents the choices
of the GAA nominating committee, it should be noted that
any member of the GAA may be nominated in accordance with
Article VII of the bylaws, as follows: "Any member of
the Alumni Association may be nominated for director by a
petition containing the signatures of 20 alumni with the
executive secretary no later than April 1."
Any member of the GAA who would like to be so nominated
should submit a petition to Patrick L. McCarthy by April
1. If any petition should be received, a ballot will appear
in the next issue of Holy Cross Magazine so that alumni can
vote for the candidate(s) nominated by petition. The names
of newly elected officers and directors will be announced
at the GAA's annual banquet during Reunion Weekend. All alumni
are invited to attend.
