Officer Elections
Spring is officer election time for TCEA special interest groups. The Virtual Learning SIG had one office up for re-election: Vice President/President-Elect. We had one person who was nominated for the office, so the election was not necessary. We'd like to welcome Bonnie Blan as our incoming Vice President, beginning April 1, 2015. Our secretary/Treasurer will remain Pam Dooley, as she serves her second year of a two-year term. JoAnn Roe, current Vice President, will assume the office of President.
