SUBJECT: A SPECIAL MESSAGE FOR GSA MEMBERS
From: Sharon Mosher, President, and
Dave Stephenson, Acting Executive Director
On behalf of the Geological Society of America, we would like to express our sympathy and condolences to all GSA members and staff for whom the horrible events on Tuesday were a personal tragedy. The hostile actions have affected us all in ways that are hard to describe. GSA has received a number of messages for our members from Societies and individuals around the world. We would like to pass them on to you and have posted them in the column to the right.
In the days to come, we will go back to our usual business, and air travel will become more secure. Our annual meeting in Boston is nearly two months from now, and we anticipate no changes in our plans for the meeting. We look forward to seeing a great many of you there.
Again, we would like to add our condolences to those from abroad.
Sincerely,
Sharon Mosher, President
Dave Stephenson, Acting Executive Director
