Additional ABGPS Committees

The main duties of each committee are described below:

• Awards Gala: This committee plans the biggest event that ABGPS holds during the year. Because this is a glitzy event, it is important for this committee to determine all logistics of the event, which will include recognition of exemplary faculty, graduating members, etc.
• Community Relations: This committee works to get members organized for the targeted community service projects ABGPS participates in each year.
• Professional Development: This committee works to enhance the professional development of its members by strengthening the Association's foundation in professional development activities. ABGPS will collaborate with PFF (Preparing Future Faculty) on professional development activities this year.
• Social Events: This committee plans social events for the Association throughout the year. It is imperative for ABGPS to strengthen its connections with its members in an environment that encourages fun and learning more about one another.
