HOD information

The HOD speakers encourage delegates and alternate delegates to use this page to access important House information that the speakers will make available throughout the year.

As a member, you can review HOD reports under development, volunteer for a reference committee, and more.

HOD Speakers' Open Forum

In response to the open forum held at I-25, we have created a Speakers’ Open Forum where you can provide additional feedback to your speakers on functions of the House.

Volunteer for service on HOD committees

Election Committee

The primary role of the Election Committee is to work with the speakers to adjudicate any election complaint. Additional roles are to be determined by the speaker and may include monitoring election reforms, deliberating future campaign modifications, and responding to requests from the speaker for input on election issues as they arise. Individuals will serve 1-year terms, eligible for reappointment for not more than four consecutive terms and a lifetime maximum tenure of eight terms.

The deadline to submit the volunteer form is Thursday, Aug. 13 by 5 p.m. Central. Apply now.

Other HOD committees

A new form will need to be submitted if you would like to be considered for service even if you have completed forms for previous meetings. Preference will be given to volunteers who have not served at a recent meeting.

The deadline to submit the volunteer form is Thursday, Aug. 13 by 5 p.m. Central. Apply now.
