Election results

The ACM SIGGRAPH 2006 election results are in. Jeff Jortner was elected Treasurer, Rick Barry was elected Director for Education and Jim Kilmer was elected Director at Large. New offices begin on July 1, 2006. We appreciate the commitment to ACM SIGGRAPH that all the candidates made in accepting the nominations. We are sure that such outstanding volunteers will have many other opportunities to serve within ACM SIGGRAPH, and we look forward to continuing to work with all the candidates.

ACM SIGGRAPH 2006 Election Results

Each year the Nominating Committee, led by the Past President of ACM, looks for nominees for the following year's Executive Committee positions. The committee will be nominating for three positions this year: Director for Communications, Director for Chapters, and Director at Large. More information about the duties of each position can be found in our bylaws. The Nominating Committee for 2006-2007 will be chaired by the Past President, Alain Chesnais. Anyone interested in a leadership position in ACM SIGGRAPH is encouraged to contact him to express your interest or to suggest good candidates.

We appreciate the interest of everyone who voted in this election and remind all members of ACM SIGGRAPH that your votes set the direction of the organization. I would also like to thank the Nominating Committee, Eugene Fiume, Scott Lang and Bonnie Mitchell, for their time and effort spent interviewing candidates for these positions.
