SAN Business Meeting – Saturday at 6:30

Hello SAN Colleagues,

 

Please join us for th=
e SAN business meeting this Saturday.  Try to get there early as we wi=
ll start promptly at 6:30 (I will try to get there by 6:15).
 I realize it’s an awful time/day for our meeting and many of y=
ou have competing obligations so I will do my best to end by 7:45.  &n=
bsp;

Most importantly we will be recognizing the accomplishments of Beth Schneid=
er who is the winner of this year’s SAN Career Award, along with our =
student award winners. Beth and a couple of our student Award winners (list=
ed below in the agenda) also plan to attend
so it will be especially nice to make these awards in person.

 

The agenda follows be=
low.  If for some reason you have trouble finding the room, my cell ph=
one number is 317-506-1466.   Hope to see many of you there!&nbsp=
;
Best, CF
