Dear SIM colleagues,
On behalf of the SIM nominations committee (Shawn Berman, Tom
Donaldson, Lance Moir, Kathy Rehbein, and myself), I want to thank
everyone who participated in the 2007 election process (which closed
on May 18). This year, voting turnout was 42.2% of 1301 eligible
members (up about 5 percentage points from last year based on 1191
eligible members). Both membership and voting turnout are up.
On behalf of the entire SIM membership, I express appreciation to all
the candidates who stepped forward to serve SIM by running for
office. The competitive positions (program chair elect and two
representatives-at-large) were all closely contested. Every
candidate received a substantial body of support. Unfortunately we
can only elect one individual to each position.
Congratulations go to the following individuals who have been elected:
SIM DIVISION CHAIR
Tom Donaldson, Wharton School
SIM DIVISION CHAIR ELECT
Linda Trevino, Penn State Univ
SIM PROGRAM CHAIR
Ann Buchholtz, Univ of Georgia
SIM PROGRAM CHAIR ELECT (PDW CHAIR)
Barry Mitnick, Univ of Pittsburgh
REPRESENTATIVES-AT-LARGE (2 positions for 3-year terms)
Andy Crane, York Univ
Lori Ryan, San Diego State Univ
Again, thanks to everyone who participated and especially to the
candidates who have served SIM in a vital role by running for
office. I hope to see many of you in Philadelphia (August 3-8).
