BIG 12 CONFERENCE NCAA COMMITTEE NOMINATION PROCESS
The following process, as developed by the Administrative Committee in 2004, will be used for nominations of Big 12 Conference representatives to serve on NCAA committees.
o Annually, the Conference staff will send to each institution’s designated NCAA committee coordinator a list of all NCAA committees without Conference representation, regardless of vacancies, and request that those who have interest complete a nomination form and forward it to the Conference office by the established deadline.
o The Administrative Committee will meet at the Fall Meetings to determine a slate of candidates to recommend at the Joint Council Meeting that the Conference will use when vacancies occur during the upcoming academic year.
o The Administrative Committee authorizes the commissioner to deviate from the selections when the NCAA staff indicates a particular need related to diversity or a specific position.
o The following committees will not be slated; rather the Conference office will solicit institutional interest when vacancies occur. The reason for excluding these committees from the general process is due to the political nature of the committees and their importance to the Conference.
