there arises the potential for a conflict of interest as director of OCEES and as vice chair of Biological Sciences. It is with regret that I will step down from my leadership role in OCEES because I believe it is the most ethical thing do. I have been in
a leadership role in OCEES since its start and have held the helm since Steve Reilly retired. With such a long tenure, I think a new director and leadership with fresh ideas would be of great benefit to the group. At this time, the board will initiate a nomination
