The AASV’s issue-based committees will be meeting on Saturday morning before the 2009 AASV Annual meeting in Dallas, TX.
Recognizing that the committees form the backbone of our organization, the AASV Board of Directors has set aside Saturday morning for committee meetings. This allows adequate time for the committees to conduct a productive meeting without having to schedule around other activities. The Board relies on the committees as "issue experts" and seeks their input with regards to issues of importance to swine veterinarians. Committees are called upon to examine an issue and advise the Board on official positions the association should take or to develop additional resources to educate our membership.
All AASV members are welcome to attend any committee meeting. If you are interested in joining a committee, please feel free to contact the committee chair and express your interest. The complete committee meeting schedule and room assignments can be found on the AASV Annual Meeting web site under the Committee Meeting Schedule tab. Meeting agendas are available on the committee web pages.
Below you will find a list of the times for the scheduled committee meetings. Please take this opportunity to participate in the leadership of your association.
