SCB ELECTIONS

The following individuals were elected to the Board of Governors of the Society for Conservation Biology in the 2003 general election. A total of 410 ballots were received. Approximately 75% of the ballots were submitted online. The new Board members will begin their three-year terms of office at the end of the 2003 annual meeting.

John Robinson, President Elect
Devra Kleiman, Botanical Garden, Zoological Garden, Public Aquarium, or Natural History Museum
William Sutherland, University or College

Three positions will be open in the 2004 election

Non-governmental organization
Governmental agency
Social sciences

As always, these positions are open to nominees from any country. Nominees must be SCB members in good standing. By agreeing to stand for election, nominees indicate their willingness to serve SCB by attending, generally at their own expense, all Board of Governors meetings during their three-year term of office. Board meetings occur at each annual meeting. They are scheduled on the day prior to the first day of scientific sessions and during the meeting (rarely conflicting with concurrent sessions). Another Board meeting is held in February or March (location varies). In addition, Board members are expected to be actively engaged in directing SCB through committee work and by working with local chapters.

The deadline for nominations is 1 September 2003. Please send nominations, including the nomination category and complete contact information for the nominee, to Erica Fleishman, Center for Conservation Biology, Department of Biological Sciences, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-5020, USA, efleish@stanford.edu (or use the online form here).
