FCLB Business Meeting At the annual business meeting, four flags once again graced the podium as Mexico, Australia, and Canada joined the US boards. Dr. Wayne C. Wolfson of Florida was elected to a one-year term as FCLB president, and Dr. Richard Cole of Tennessee emerged the winner in a run-off election among three candidates for vice president. Dr. David Brown of Virginia continues on the Federation board as immediate past president. Bylaws amendments were discussed vigorously, finally going down to defeat with recommendations that amendments be presented in a more flexible format next year. In addition to basic housekeeping items, the two major issues focused on adding a new membership class to include board administrators (and an administrator seat on the overall board of directors) and terms of office for the three officer positions. Some members favored retaining the current limit of two one-year terms, while others supported a single two-year term. A resolution endorsing general guidelines to streamline mobility for practicing doctors passed without opposition. Following the meeting, Dr. N. Edwin Weathersby of Arizona was appointed by the board to complete the remainder of Dr. Cole's term as Treasurer. Finally, Dr. James Sommers of Michigan was officially installed as District II Director at the meeting. Retiring directors included past president Dr. Lawrence Gerstein of Missouri and Dr. James P. Powell of Ohio. Click here to see the minutes from the meeting. |
