Governance
The Council of the AIA is made up of its Governing Board, Past Presidents, Chairmen of the Managing Committees of all American Schools that the Institute has founded, the Presidents of all affiliated Local Societies, and additional members from each Society depending on its size. The Council meets once a year at the Annual Meeting of the Institute.
In the interval between the Council's annual meetings, the Governing Board exercises full power in managing the Institute and conducting its affairs. In addition, the Governing Board has responsibility for preparing and approving the organization's annual budget, for overseeing its investments and endowment, and for conducting fund-raising activities. The Governing Board meets three times per year and consists of seven officers and 24 to 30 Trustees elected by Council. There are three divisions of Trustees, representing the AIA's general Members, the academic community, and the organization's Local Societies.
The Executive Committee was established by the Governing Board in 1984 to "exercise all the power and authority of the Governing Board in between meetings of the Governing Board." The Committee also nominates recipients of the Joukowsky Distinguished Service Award at its fall meeting. The Committee has 12 members: the President, First Vice President, Vice President for Professional Responsibilities, Vice President for Research and Academic Affairs, Vice President for Societies, Vice President for Society and Outreach, Treasurer, and Executive Director (all of whom shall serve ex officio), and four Trustees, at least one of whom must be an Academic Trustee. The Trustees will be appointed to the Executive Committee by the President on an annual basis, and take office immediately after the Council Meeting in January. The Committee meets via conference call between meetings of the Governing Board. Approved minutes of the meetings are circulated to the Governing Board and published in the AIA Bulletin.
