call for nominations

The Council of 3M National Teaching Fellows is a community of award-winning teachers who are lifetime members of the Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education (STLHE), and are a constituency within the STLHE.  The Council shares the aims of the STLHE, advises the 3M National Teaching Fellowships Program Coordinator, and undertakes projects that enhance teaching and learning in Canadian post-secondary institutions.

Nominations are invited for three members-at-large on the 3M Council Executive. Each term of office shall be two years, beginning June 1, 2009 and ending June 30, 2011. 

As a member-at-large, you will be responsible for participating in meetings of the Executive Team and contributing to the goals of the Council.

The 3M Council Executive holds two face-to-face meeting per year. One meeting will be held in conjunction with the STLHE annual conference in June. It is anticipated that the second meeting will be held in Montreal prior to the 3M Selection Committee meeting.  Between these meetings, the Council's business is primarily conducted by videoconference and email. Expenses related to attending these meetings will be covered by the 3M Council.
