SCB ELECTION RESULTS

The following individuals were elected to the Board of Governors in the 2005 general election. A total of 828 ballots were received from members in 64 countries (10% voter turnout). The new Board members will begin their two-year (President Elect) or three-year (all other officers) terms of office at the end of the 2005 annual meeting.

Georgina Mace, President Elect
Paul Beier, Secretary
Tom Sisk, Local Chapters
Tracy Dobson, Humanities

Two positions will be open in the 2006 election

Botanical garden, zoological garden, public aquarium, or natural history museum
University or college

As always, these positions are open to nominees from any country. Nominees must be SCB members in good standing. By agreeing to stand for election, nominees indicate their willingness to serve SCB by attending, generally at their own expense, all Board of Governors meetings during their three-year term of office. Board meetings occur at each annual meeting. They are scheduled on the day prior to the first day of scientific sessions and during the meeting (rarely conflicting with concurrent sessions). Another Board meeting is held in February or March (location varies). In addition, Board members are expected to be actively engaged in directing SCB through committee work and by working with Sections and local chapters.

The deadline for nominations is 1 September 2005. Please send nominations, including the nomination category and complete contact information for the nominee, to Erica Fleishman, efleish@stanford.edu.
