<> LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
As I hope everyone knows by now, two of our stars have been very appropriately recognized for their career-long contributions to earth sciences - Gerard Bond has been awarded the Ewing medal by AGU and Taro Takahashi has been elected a Fellow of AGU. Please be sure to congratulate them for these well deserved honors, and I look forward to seeing them both in tuxedos in San Francisco later this year.

I attended the first meeting of the Earth Institute's new Council of Directors earlier this week. Chaired by Jeffrey Sachs, this group, along with the Academic Committee, will play a leadership role in shaping the future. A good detailed management plan for the EI has been completed and upon implementation (following approval by the President's office) will bring new order to EI decision-making.

It was not me who drove through the gate (while it was still down) at our main entrance this morning. It was still in one piece when I arrived - honest!

Have a great weekend,
 

- Mike
