2015 AIHA ELECTIONS
Please note: Due to an editing error, the professional designations for Deborah Nelson, PhD, CIH, candidate for vice president, and Lindsay Cook, CIH, CSP, candidate for treasurer-elect, were omitted from the print edition of the February issue. The Synergist regrets these errors. The digital edition has been corrected.
Each year, The Synergist asks candidates for the AIHA Board of Directors to participate in a candidates’ forum. This year’s candidates were asked to respond to the following question:
AIHA celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2014, and the Board has spent a lot of time and effort preparing for the next 75 years. Toward that end, in July 2013 the Board approved a content strategy to ensure AIHA is helping IHs work effectively into the future. If elected, what areas of professional practice do you see as critical for IHs to “own,” and how would you support this effort to deliberately prioritize AIHA’s work? This year’s ballot includes two candidates for vice president, two for treasurer-elect, and four for director. Beginning in early March, AIHA members will use their e-mail address and membership identification number to access the online voting system for the 2015 Board of Directors election. Members who require a paper ballot must submit their request by e-mail no later than Friday, Feb. 20. The paper ballot will be mailed by early March and must be returned postmarked no later than Friday, March 20, to be counted in the election. For more information, please contact Judy Keithline at (703) 846-0702 or keithline@aiha.org.

Honoring 75 Years of AIHA Presidents As AIHA members prepare to vote in the 2015 Board election, the association thanks those who have served as AIHA’s presidents over the last 75 years. Their leadership has been instrumental in shaping AIHA and the industrial hygiene profession. AIHA embarks on its next 75 years in 2015, and looks forward to the growth and advancement of the field.
AIHA’s current president, Christine A.D. Lorenzo, will conclude her term at AIHce 2015 in Salt Lake City, Utah, where President-elect Daniel H. Anna will be inducted as the association’s new leader.
