Dear Colleagues: In conformity with past practices and current bylaws, the JPS Nominations Committee requests your assistance in identifying persons who might serve as future members of our Board of Directors. Each year 5 members rotate off of our 15-person Board and are replaced by a new cohort chosen in ways meant to insure that the group is reasonably balanced with respect to areas of research interest and other foreseeable demographic considerations. The following is a list of current Board members. The members in the 2006-2009 cohort will be rotating off the Board as of June 2009. The 2006-2009 Board: Stephanie Carlson, Katherine Nelson, Larry Nucci, Bryan Sokol, & Cecilia Wainryb The 2007-2010 Board: Merry Bullock, Terezinha Nunes, Elliot Turiel, & Phil Zelazo The 2008-2011 Board: Michael Chandler, Cynthia Lightfoot, Stacey Horn, Lynn Liben, & Chris Moore The Nominations Committee is especially charged with the responsibility of insuring sufficient continuity in the governance of the Society to guarantee its viability, and of identifying persons who have been active in the Society, or who are scholars in areas of special concern to the Society.?Previous members of the Board can be re-nominated after a hiatus of one year. Therefore, those in the 2006-2009 cohort are not eligible for this round of nominations. As a way of accomplishing these purposes we actively seek your advice and suggestions.?If you would like to recommend one or more persons for possible inclusion in the 2009-2012 Board, please forward your suggestions by August 29, 2008, to us at: turiel@berkeley.edu? and?? nbudwig@clarku.edu Best regards, Elliot Turiel and Nancy Budwig Co-Chairs, JPS Nominations Committee
