The Executive Committee of the ACS Division
of Chemical Education met on Saturday, September 6,
prior to the ACS Fall National Meeting in Las Vegas.
Among other actions, the Committee voted to appoint
Ann Cartwright and reappoint John Gelder to the
Journal's Board of Publication for three year terms. They also
reappointed Don Jones and appointed Claire Baker to
the Board of Trustees of the CHED Examinations
Institute, each for three year terms.
The results of the annual election of officers
appears at the right. In addition, the membership approved
the proposed changes to the Articles of Incorporation and
the Division of Chemical Education Bylaws by votes of 767
to 122 and 791 to 101, respectively. As a result of
these changes (which still need final approval by the ACS
Committee on Constitution and Bylaws), CHED affiliate
members (those who are not members of ACS) will be
allowed to vote for the Division offices of Chair-elect,
Treasurer, and Member-at-Large in future elections. Since ACS
governance requires Councilors to be ACS members,
affiliate members will not be able to vote for CHED Councilors.
