Brian Skelton, Region 3 Newsletter Editor Subject: Newsletter Report I would like to welcome all new Region 3 officers to our first meeting on 1998. I have served as the Communications Committee chair for the last 2 years, and have certainly learned a lot and enjoyed the experience. Several people went beyond the call of duty in their support of my function. These include David Lee, Brian Swail, Lee Stogner, Vernon Powers, Bob Duggan, and David Green. I especially appreciate their assistance and dedication. For the next 2 years, I will be serving as Region 3 Newsletter Editor. Region 3 traditionally publishes 3 newsletters, one each in the Winter, Spring, and Fall. Each committee chair is expected to submit an article relating to their committee function. A notice of the deadline for article submission normally goes out on e-mail a few weeks before the deadline. However, this letter serves as the notification of the Winter 1998 deadline of January 29. During my oral report in Savannah, I plan to briefly discuss some of the things that I am looking for in the articles and some of the things I would like to avoid. These newsletters get good readership from IEEE leaders in Region 3, and articles are worth putting some time into. Congratulations on your appointment, and I look forward to working with you in 1998! Brian Skelton b.skelton@ieee.org 901-528-4333 (office) 901-388-6930 (home)
