Sigma Xi is proud to announce the winners of the 2013 Sigma Xi Society Officer Elections. We'd like to thank all of our members for their time in nominating, considering, and voting for this group of volunteers and we look forward to working closely with them in the coming months to ensure Sigma Xi's continued success.

President-elect, treasurer, directors, and associate directors begin their terms on July 1, 2014. Nomination Committee members began their terms at the conclusion of the voting period.

Election Results

Many members who voted commented on the need to have more than one candidate running for positions.

"We are and will be working diligently with all the Committees on Nominations to have more than one candidate for positions in the future," said Jerry Baker, Sigma Xi's executive director. "We want diversity on our committees and boards."

Approximately 14 percent of Sigma Xi members participated in our third election held online. Many voters commented that the system was easy to use.

If you are interested in serving in an elected position in the future, please contact executiveoffice@sigmaxi.org. By serving as a leader of Sigma Xi, you have the unique opportunity to guide the Society at large, both in the present and the future. Please let us know how you would like to get involved.

Congratulations to our new officers! We look forward to an outstanding 2014!
