This concludes my final update as President of the HED area of AMEA. The past two years have been an excellent experience for me and I have really enjoyed meeting and working with everyone on the board and with so many other HED folks throughout the state. I look forward to the coming years, where I hope to continue to participate in AMEA through publications, presentations, and performances. As always, I encourage each of you to continue your involvement in AMEA and to persuade your colleagues, especially new faculty members, to be active members.
