A Message from EAS President

Dear EAS member,

During the last few months, a number of major personal and business commitment changes occurred to several members of the EAS Board members that has impacted the Society activities. These changes impacted the Vice President (transferred out of the country), two members at large (resigned due to business reasons), and finally, the President (large business activities changes impacted availability in Houston).

In order to assure the continued activities of the EAS, and after consultation with Dr. Sabbahi (Chairman of Nomination/Election Committee) and Dr. Ezzat Abouleish, outgoing EAS president, I concluded that my resignation would open the door for electing a new board.

I have consulted with Dr. Sabbahi, and the Board members and we are calling for a new Board election to be held during the next society meeting on October 31. Meeting details will be sent out shortly.

In the meantime, the current Board invites the EAS members to nominate for any of the positions of the Board; namely, a President, a Vice President, a Secretary, a Treasurer, and Members at Large. Please send your intent for nomination, with a brief introduction of yourself and your vision for the position to Dr. M. Sabbahi, at msabbahi@mail.twu.edu.

On behalf of the current board, I would like to thank you the members for allowing us the chance to serve you. I hope in the short time we were active, we met your expectations. We also apologize for the lack of activities in the last few month.

Thanks you all,

Ibrahim Abou-Sayed
President EAS
