A State Chair is the State-level equivalent of a sponsor . A State can have as many State Chairs as is necessary ( though it needs at least one to be in good standing ).
Additionally , the NJCL Constitution sets a maximum State Chair term limit of five years .

To be a State Chair , you must be : A . a member of the American Classical League ; B . a teacher in classics or an legal adult high school graduate that lives in the State ’ s geographic area ; C . able to perform the duties specified in the NJCL Chapter Handbook .
