On November 1, APA will ask its members to vote on a bylaws amendment.
The bylaws change would grant voting privileges to graduate students and associate members after one year of APA membership. Graduate students currently do not have voting privileges, and associate members are currently granted voting privileges after 5 years of APA membership.
These privileges extend to electing the APA president and members-at-large to the APA Board of Directors; and to voting on bylaws amendments and apportionment, which determines the number of seats each APA division and constituency has on the APA Council of Representatives
