Good Morning,
I will say that joining a committee is the best way to get involved in NABs. NABS recently put out a list of committees on the student master distribution list, so if you are on a student division list, you should have seen it by now.
communications, fundraising, student slate, membership and website are the committees. I can’t seem to remember who serves on each committee as chair, but you might contact Sean Whalen at nabs.president at gmail.com. Give him a couple of days to respond, I hear he is backlogged a bit.
If you want results more quickly you might visit www.nabslink.org where committee chairs can be found under the name of the board member who might be associated with it.
I hope this is helpful.
As a quick note, if you ran for a boar position and didn’t get it, I would truly hope you consider serving on a committee. Also if you might want to serve on the board at some point, you might get your feet wet by being on a committee. I think that everyone who even kind of considers the idea should serve on a committee, as this might serve as a gateway to serve in various other parts of the Federation (we are needed not only in NABS, you know).
Take care,
Darian
