Please join us in welcoming the 2016-2017 AIAS Committees and Task Forces! Each year, we rely on the committees and task forces to keep the AIAS energetic and forward-looking.

We’re so excited for this diverse and hardworking group of students to lead us through another productive, successful and exciting year!
