South Carolina Council of IEEE

Report to region 3 excom december, 2001

SC Council officers for 2002

Chair - Marilene Guardia-Baker
Vice-chair - Steve Carroll
Treasurer - Nancy Gunderson
Secretary - Brent Baker

Past Chair Allen Thomas is commended for the dedication and guidance
he has provided to this Council in the past two years.

Meetings
 
There were three council meetings held during this past year in
Columbia, SC.  I am pleased to announce that the Central Savannah
Section is active again, thanks to the efforts of T. David Mills,
Section Chair.  All four SC Sections are therefore in active status
and doing well.  We had a very busy year with back to back SouthEast
Conferences held in our state.  The 2001 Clemson SEC was great, and
the 2002 Columbia SEC is in the works.  Our heartfelt thanks to Nancy
Gunderson, SC Council Treasurer, for stepping in to fill the empty SEC
Chair post when the elected Chair moved out of the state in mid-year.
