To: Region 3 ExCom Fr: William Ratcliff, Chair- R3 Nominations and Appoints Committee 2010 Sb: Region 3 R3 N&A Committee Report for August 30 ExCom Dt: 29 August 2010 As Chair of the Region 3 N&A Committee 2010, I want to thank my fellow members George McClure and Bill Harrison for their expertise, hard work and patience as we worked our way through the process. The report is in the form of the presentation that will be presented in the ExCom meeting on Monday 30 August 2010 but in summary there are several areas that need to be reviewed to avoid confusion and provide for consistency in the future. The following areas of the Region 3 Bylaws, and Operations Manual should be given special attention as we move forward. * The bylaws requirement that the slate presented to the membership have two or three names. * The deadline for forwarding the Delegate Director Elect 2012-2013 candidate list to IEEE Board of Directors is 15 March 2011. The time line and process that the Region 3 N&A is recommending will meet the above requirements with time to spare. Respectfully submitted: _ |_)0 |_)||_|_ William B.
