Dear MWWHA members and friends,

The results of the MWWHA election are in, and I have the privilege to announce who the newly elected members of our Executive Committee. Before I do, however, I would like to thank everyone who ran for office as well as everyone who took the time to vote. As always, this year’s election was quite competitive, which is a good indicator of the continued health of our all-volunteer organization. And without further ado, the newly elected members of the EC are:

Steven Glazer

Karin Steinbrueck

Andrew Magnusson

Eileen Orzoff-Baranyk

David Eaton

Thanks again and I also hope to see you at our next conference.

Saludos,

Andrae Marak
