AHA Activities

Each year the AHA headquarters office receives several dozen invitations to par­ticipate in presidential inaugurations at academic institutions or anniversary convocations of learned societies. Since neither the President nor the other elected officers of the Association can personally attend these numerous func­tions, a delegate is appointed to repre­sent the AHA membership.
