S-USIH Annual Elections

elections-ahead-sign-600x400According to article III section 10 of the S-USIH constitution, it is time for the society’s annual elections.  In one month from now (the first week of May), we will hold the election for officers by using, as we did last year, an on-line polling service.  Until May 1, though, I will gladly accept nominations for officers.  Self-nominations are preferred, but if one wants to nominate someone, please take care to gain their consent before proposing the person to me.  Officers and members of the society have reached out to encourage people to run, but now that we have a website we will use it to encourage nominations as well.

Only those who are members can nominate and run for election.  If you have any questions  regarding this process, please let me know at: [email protected].

S-USIH Comment Policy

We ask that those who participate in the discussions generated in the Comments section do so with the same decorum as they would in any other academic setting or context. Since the USIH bloggers write under our real names, we would prefer that our commenters also identify themselves by their real name. As our primary goal is to stimulate and engage in fruitful and productive discussion, ad hominem attacks (personal or professional), unnecessary insults, and/or mean-spiritedness have no place in the USIH Blog’s Comments section. Therefore, we reserve the right to remove any comments that contain any of the above and/or are not intended to further the discussion of the topic of the post. We welcome suggestions for corrections to any of our posts. As the official blog of the Society of US Intellectual History, we hope to foster a diverse community of scholars and readers who engage with one another in discussions of US intellectual history, broadly understood.

  1. Ray: Has the Constitution been updated to reflect the “fact” (?) that we’re electing two conference chairs—2014 and 2015? This clearly affects the nomination procedure. – TL

    • Note to all: Ray clarified to me in an e-mail that S-USIH members are, in fact, electing two conference chairs (2014 & 2015) this year.
