<> LETTER FROM THE DIRECTOR
The end of this painful week is welcomed. Thank you all who
attended the Recognition Event for George Papa on Wednesday.
It was a fine tribute to George, and his family greatly appreciated
our kind thoughts.
Now we must move on and make the adjustments to our administration
so that we can continue to function effectively in the short
term. Vicky Nazario has been appointed as Acting Head of the
Accounting Group, Pat Temple's Ancillary Services operation
reports temporarily to Pam Stambaugh, and I will take on the
supervisory role for the Administrative units overall. We
engaged a search firm this afternoon to start the process
of finding a permanent Assistant Director for Finance and
Administration. This process, which will be careful and thorough,
will take several months to complete, so we must continue
to devise ways in the interim to handle our administrative
affairs.
I leave for San Francisco on Monday morning and will return
on Friday. It will be a busy week, and will doubtless see
many of you out there - hopefully at our annual Alumni reception
at the Crowne Plaza Hotel on Tuesday at 6:30pm.
At last I can make the formal announcement of what I hope
most of you know already - the name of our new research vessel
will be Marcus G. Langseth. We plan extensive celebrations
of this fact at the time of commissioning, following the refit,
sometime in late 2005.
Lamont annual children's holiday party for our children and
grandchildren ages 2-12 on Sunday, December 19th 3pm–5pm
– Lamont Hall. Please bring a small gift for Santa to
give to your child or grandchild, and an appetizer or dessert
to share.
I hope it will be a quiet week back here at Lamont.
Have a good weekend,
– Mike
