Clanton attorney Elizabeth “Liz” Huntley was one of nine people nominated Monday, Feb. 6 by a selection committee to serve on the Auburn University Board of Trustees.

Gov. Robert Bentley leads the committee and will send nominations to the state Senate.

Alabama’s Senate must approve each of the nine appointments in order for the nominees to start serving new seven-year terms.

Huntley was initially nominated for the board of trustees last year, but the selection process had to be redone following a lawsuit and resignation of AU trustee Bobby Lowder.
