Dear members
of the ISSE and TIIMES communities:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br>
As you may
have heard, the Board of Trustees provided a solid endorsement of the
plan to
create ISP (Integrated Science Program) as a partner to ASP. This was
followed
by a positive review by NSF program mangers. I attach the final
description
of the ISP plan as modified by suggestions from the Board and NSF. It
is now
our plan to move forward with the development of the ISP by seeking a
Director. This will be an internal search with the objective of naming
the
Director by early March (the composition of the search committee is
given
below). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br>
This meeting is designed to provide time in case you have any questions
about
the search or the next steps in the process. The plans to form ISP
will be
announced UCAR-wide Wednesday at the end of the day. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br>
I look
forward to meeting with you or hearing any questions that you might
have.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
