Dear Melissa, 4Cs organizers, and IP caucus:

 

I’m in a deep personal crisis and have been unable to complete the proposal for the IP Standing Group. I am currently attending to self-care and counseling, but have been unable to keep up with email. I resign my position as Senior Chair of the IP Standing Group and ask that the Junior Chair, with the assistance of the Standing Groupt, be permitted to submit a late proposal.

 

With apologies,

 

Mike Edwards

The Business Meeting proposal could be uploaded very rapidly by cannibalizing last year's. (See attached.) It would really only be a matter of updating the names of table leaders. See attached. In the interest of speed, I'd be glad to swap out the names as Senior Chair emerita, so to speak. Mike, if I did that, would you be willing to chair the meeting in the spring as the actual Senior Chair?

The Sponsored Panel proposal, however, takes a little more time. At least three people need to submit paragraphs that are then edited into a unified document. (Again, see attached.)

Kim

Is the sponsored session required, though? I had thought that as a standing group, we were allowed to have a sponsored session, but that it wasn't mandatory.

For this year, given the time factor, maybe we could pass on the sponsored session and simply request time for the business meeting.

Dear Kim, Clancy, and all,

Yes, that makes sense to me. Take care of yourself, Mike.

I'm just coming to this late, but I'm okay with that solution too, which will also give us time to mentor Charles more as junior chair.

Wishing you the best, Mike.

Proposal going in COB today.

I will be listed as CHAIR as the proposal originator.

Mike will be listed as STANDING GROUP OR CAUCUS CHAIR with all options open depending on the situation come spring. He could chair the business meeting face-to-face,  he could chair the business meeting remotely, or he could opt not to chair at all, in which case chairing the business meeting would default to me (probably remotely—as a retired professor I can no longer travel on the university dime).
Charles will be listed as TABLE LEADER and will be introduced at the business meeting as Junior Chair. Current and past chairs need to start mentoring him so that he can chair the business meeting in spring 2027.
Is there anyone else who wishes to be included in the program under the category of TABLE LEADER? If so, please email me immediately. I will edit the proposal based on any emails that have arrived by 4 pm today.

Best,

Kim Gainer, Chair emerita

I think with our shortened time period, we need to rethink our “table leader” structure—but yes, sure, put me down as one of them!
