>> So a) if anyone here thinks they could be a fit for one of these positions, please poke around the above website, including the timeline (applications will open soon, TBD), and consider applying; and b) if you think you know someone else who could fit the bill, ask them to do the same.

>> In addition, as I’m on the outreach subcommittee, if you have any suggestions of meetings (especially before end of March) at which we could conduct some outreach to encourage good applications, please send me a note.
