Accepting nominations for the next ISU*USA Board though Jan 16th, 2009

Dear ISU family,

The current ISU*USA Board's term has come to an end (two years already?). We are sending out this email to invite nominations for a new set of officers. We have a President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary and IT/Communications Director. You can pull together a slate or run for a single office. The term is 2 years and you will preside over the first ISU SSP in the United States in over ten years! The Board's job is to work with ISU to meet the needs of the Alumni, organize social events, support ISU, get the word about ISU out to more students, see them off, welcome them back from their programs, support the Alumni Conference and any other projects you see fit.

• Nominations accepted from Jan 5 - Jan 16, 2009. Any alum living in or a citizen of the USA may nominate any other alum who meets the same criteria- Just send me an email with their name and the office you are nominating them for. Self-nominations are acceptable. If nomination is accepted, candidate must submit a one paragraph statement.
• We will send out emails on Monday, Jan 19 announcing the candidates.
  
• Voting from Jan 19 - 28 (details set out in voting email)
