Dear SLUO Members and Colleagues:

The 2009 SLUO election has been completed. The SLUO Executive Committee extends its gratitude to all of the candidates.

We had a terrific slate this year, covering a broad spectrum of research interests at the Lab.

We had a total of 197 valid Ballots returned within the election period (November 23 - December 13, 2009).

==> The top four ballot-earners receive the traditional 3-year terms.

The new 2009 members of the SLUO Executive Committee are (by alphabetical order):

Anna Goussiou, U. of Washington, ATLAS

Maria-Elena Monzani, SLAC, Fermi

Homer Neal, SLAC, Babar

Ian Shipsey, Purdue, LSST

Thanks to all.

Best regards,                                Gerard - SLUO Chair
