SCB ELECTION RESULTS

The following individuals were elected to the Board of Governors in the 2006 general election. A total of 601 ballots were received. The new Board members will begin their three-year terms of office after the 2006 annual meeting.

Stuart Strahl, Botanical garden, zoological garden, public aquarium, or natural history museum
Mark Schwartz, University or college

Four positions will be open in the 2007 election

-- President Elect
-- Non-governmental organization
-- Governmental agency
-- Social sciences

As always, these positions are open to nominees from any country who are SCB members in good standing. Nominees must be willing to serve SCB by attending, generally at their own expense, all Board of Governors meetings during their two-year (President Elect, followed by two years as President) or three-year (all other governors) 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 work with committees, Regional Sections, and local chapters.

Please send nominations, including the nomination category and complete contact information for the nominee, to Erica Fleishman (efleish@stanford.edu) or Deborah Jensen (deborah.jensen@zoo.org).
