Who is eligible for selection to AAS executive positions?

Eligibility for selection to AAS executive positions is limited to active members who meet specified criteria. This ensures that candidates have demonstrated commitment to the organization and possess a deeper understanding of its objectives, values, and functions. Active membership generally requires participation in activities and fulfillment of certain responsibilities, which help prepare individuals for leadership roles.

Active members are essential for sustaining the organization's effectiveness and continuity, as they are the ones currently engaged in AAS activities and initiatives. They bring recent experiences and insights, which are crucial for making informed decisions that impact the society. The specified criteria typically include academic performance, participation in events, and contributions to the group's mission, ensuring that only those who have shown dedication and capability are eligible for these leadership positions.

Other options do not reflect the structured approach AAS takes in selecting individuals for leadership roles, as former members, interested AFROTC cadets, or alumni members may lack the current engagement and commitment that active members have.
