Dear COS members,

Nominations are now open for one at-large seat on the Hubbard Brook Scientific Coordinating Committee (SCC). All members of the Committee of Scientists (COS) are eligible to make nominations (including self-nominations). At-large seats have a three year term and there are no term limits. The current membership of the SCC is listed below. 

Please email nominations to me at lychristenson@vassar.edu by April 8. I will check with nominees to make sure they are willing to serve and run for election.  An on-line election will follow if more than one person is nominated. 

Thank you! 

Lynn
