President's Message

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Indian summer is such a wonderful time of the year—warm weather, blue skies, and, of course, the beautiful colors of fall. I love this time of year.

It also reminds me that the NEACRAO Annual Meeting is here. The Executive Board and Annual Meeting Co-chairs have put together an outstanding annual meeting. The meeting will be held in beautiful Newport. What a great place to get re-energized for the rest of the academic year. There will be workshops and session for everyone. New ideas, procedures, and practices will be presented that we will all be able to learn from. Information will be available to help each of us to perform our jobs in a more effective, efficient manner. I always look forward to finding new methods and procedures to help make my job easier.

I can’t tell you what a rewarding experience it has been to serve as your President. I have worked with the greatest group of people. The Executive Board and Council have been most supportive. They are the most dedicate group of people, and they are here to serve you, the membership. I have to extend my sincere thanks and appreciation to everyone who contributed their time and efforts to this year’s program.

Thanks to the entire membership of NEACRAO for giving me the opportunity to serve my friends and colleagues. I look forward to seeing you at the annual meeting.

Donna Campbell
President, NEACRAO
