ASGSR Call for Nominations for Governing Board

Dear Members of the American Society for Gravitational and Space Research (ASGSR):

This email is a call for nominations to fill our upcoming vacancies on the Governing Board and for President-Elect. Our Society is governed by a 12-member Governing Board elected for three-year terms. The terms of four members will expire in November 2016. In addition, we will need to choose a President-Elect for 2018.

If you are interested in nominating someone (or yourself) for a position on the Governing Board, or wish to nominate a possible president-elect, please forward their name and a few sentences of bio about the individual to Jobi Cook at admin@asgsr.org by Monday, September 7th. Candidates selected for the ballot will be contacted by Dr. David Urban, chair of the nominating committee, to verify their willingness to serve if elected. Once we have a slate of candidates finalized, we will distribute an electronic ballot to all members of the society and the results of the election will be announced on the first day of the 32nd meeting of ASGSR, Wednesday, October 26th, 2016 in Cleveland, OH.

To be considered as a nominee for a board position, you must be a regular or a retired member in good standing of ASGSR.

Thank you all for your continued active membership and participation with ASGSR and I look forward to seeing everyone in Cleveland.

Sincerely,
David Urban
ASGSR President 2017
