The main topic of the meeting will be the election of the 2009-2010 ASA Executive Board. We would like to encourage all of you to consider running to serve on the ASA Executive Board. You may nominate yourself by submitting a platform (in the form of a single PowerPoint slide) to asa-elect at mit.edu.

The following positions will be elected at the meeting: * President * Treasurer * Secretary * Undergraduate Members-at-Large (2) * Graduate Members-at-Large (2) * Student Member-at-Large There are currently several positions with no nominees yet, so you if you are interested you should definitely run! Additionally, we have received a number of requests for table confirmation at the upcoming midway, to be held on Saturday (April 18) from 1 to 3 pm in Johnson. A list of groups that currently have confirmed tables is available at http://web.mit.edu/asa/resources/midway/signups.txt. This list will be updated as more requests are submitted. If you have not been assigned a table (either because you forgot to sign up, or due to a clerical error on our part), don't panic. We still have some tables open; please visit http://asa.scripts.mit.edu/applications/midway/midway.php and send us an e-mail at asa-midway at mit.edu and we'll get you one.
