New Steering Committee member elected

We are very pleased to announce that Habib Tabatabai has been elected to the ELUNA Steering Committee; his term will begin in May. Habib is from the University of Central Oklahoma and comes to us with a wealth of experience. He will replace Bob Trotter who will be leaving the Steering Committee after six years of service, including one year as Chair.

Our sincere thanks to the other nominees (Jessica Hartwigsen, Dale Poulter, Curtis Thacker, and Melissa Wisner). The election resulted in a 72% response rate from ELUNA official contacts; much higher than in previous years and we thank all those who participated.

I would also like to acknowledge the hard work put in by the Nominating Committee (Jane Foo, Holly Thomason and David Ratledge) who were responsible for pulling the slate together and doing much of the ‘legwork’.

Thanks to all
Janet Lute
ELUNA Secretary
