Iam honored to be a candidate for HoD Secretary/ Editor. I
believe that AAPG has given me countless opportunities for
professional growth and net working. Fundamental to these
opportunities is communication. The Delegates' Voice
is an important vehicle for communication among HoD members
and if elected, I will work to further this tradition. I also
have an interest in insuring that the listing of delegates
by society on the AAPG website and in the AAPG Bulletin
is accurate and complete. I refer to the website list frequently
and believe that all members need to be able to easily determine
who represents them in the House of Delegates.

It
seems to me that some folks in AAPG have lost track of the
fact that AAPG is first and foremost a scientific society.
We often seem mired in political wranglings that do disservice
to our science and our members. Recent events such as the
disenfranchisement of EMD on the AC show that our Bylaws need
to be reviewed with an eye to our basic purposes, an openness
to including everyone's viewpoint, and a higher level of mutual
trust in our fellow scientists. I accept this nomination in
hopes of serving the society's better purposes and advancing
these aims.
