As you know, a ballot for the election of the six members to the IEEE Electromagnetic Compatibility Society Board of Directors was issued on August 14, 2000. The ballots returned have been counted and the following candidates have been elected for a three-year term beginning January 1, 2001:
| Henry Benitez | Bruce Crain |
| Richard (Dick) Ford | Mark I. Montrose |
| James P. Muccioli | Henry W. Ott |
Additionally, in accordance with recent changes to Society Bylaws, a member from Region 10 has been elected to the Board of Directors to satisfy the requirement for adequate international representation on the Board. Candidate Takeo Yoshino was elected for a three-year term beginning January 1, 2001.
To fill the vacancy created by the passing of Board member Motohisa Kanda, Carlos Sartori of Escola Politecnica de Universidade de Sao Paulo Brasil, was selected as a new Board member. Mr. Sartori's name was included as a candidate on last year's ballot for the EMC Society Board of Directors.
Brief biographies of these candidates will be featured in the next issue of the EMC Society Newsletter.
