Beginning in the 2024-2025 Academic Year, AAF District XI will form a Collegiate Student Advertising Council to facilitate networking and advancement of collegiate activities in the northwest states of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington.

Any schools within our district can participate. AAF college chapter membership is suggested, however NSAC participation is NOT a requirement.  

The Chair of the Council will be our 2024 Ambassador, Georgia Garnsey, Boise State University, and Vice Chair will be Gabe Foster, George Fox University. Lauren Tyler will serve as District XI Advisor to the Council.

Each group in District XI may appoint/elect members to the Council. Ideally, one member would be a “seasoned” member while the another could be a “fresh” member. Schools have complete control of their representation on the Council. 

The Council will be self-governed, determining their meeting times, frequency, agenda and discussion topics. The current members will adopt their own policies and procedures for the governance of this Council.

Following are suggested activities for the Council:

  1. Promote student entries into the American Advertising Awards Northwest competition. (or local AAA show if applicable) 
  2. Advice/suggestions for tours/visitations on Thursday afternoon of NSAC.
  3. Suggest networking games/activities for District NSAC.
  4. Determine/suggest categories for AdStar Awards.
  5. Other activities that will promote networking and advance the causes of AAF within District XI.
