Which body of the BPA selects the annual theme?

The national officer team is responsible for selecting the annual theme for BPA. This team consists of elected student leaders who represent the organization's goals and vision at the national level. They are tasked with setting the tone for the year’s events, activities, and overall direction of the organization, which includes selecting a theme that reflects the current interests, challenges, and aspirations of the members. This selection process is essential as it not only inspires participation but also promotes unity and a sense of purpose among members. The theme often aligns with BPA's mission and encourages professional development and education, making it relevant and engaging for all members.

Other bodies, such as state officers, advisors, and executive board members, have different roles within the organization. While they are influential in various aspects of BPA's operations, the national officer team's specific focus on the theme allows them to guide the organization cohesively on a national platform.
