The SOGT executive is responsible for securing speakers and funding for the talks as well as other organizational roles. Each year, the president retires, the members move up and a new junior member is nominated by the remaining members. This new member can be suggested by the executive, but we also welcome interest from any SOGT members interested in participating.
