Help lead the National Press Club into the future

The National Press Club is looking for leaders. Nominations are now officially open for 2017 Club officer positions and seats on the Board of Governors. The deadline to submit signatures is Friday, Oct. 28. Nominations for president require 25 signatures from Club members. All other positions require 15 signatures from Club members. Nominating signatures must match the category of the nominee: communicators should sign petitions for a communicator spot, journalists should sign petitions for journalist seats.

Petitions can be placed outside the president’s office on the 14th floor. Each signature should be accompanied by that person’s printed name and NPC membership number.
