3.2. Conference Officers
The W4A conference in a given year is the responsibility of the General Chair (GC). The GC's responsibilities are as specified elsewhere document, in addition to those specified in these bylaws. If 2.5 is not to be followed, the SC approves and appoints the General Chair and Program Chairs, otherwise they approve and appoint the special issue chair for each conference by two-thirds vote (to make sure that a Chair with the highest qualification is chosen) of the SC. The GC may expect the SC's advice and support in every aspect of conference organisation. The PC Chairs, in consultation with the GC, appoint the program committee members.
In this case all Conference Officers and interested parties have a set of responsibilities and timelines for maintaining their conference commitments. Organisers can find this on their Dropbox Share otherwise select from the list below to see each role's responsibilities and timelines:
