Apparently Sam Sloan is still at large as well, so congratulations to
him too.

WTF is a "member at large"?

It is something Ismail Sloan made up.If there were "wards" there board
members were elected from, the term might have meaning. As it is, it's
means nothing.

Folks like us come onto the forum so that we can see what is going
on. We do it because we are interested in chess and chess affairs.
We're (most of us, anyhow) are not here to "get" anybody.

So, just what is going on? What new initiatives is the new regime
doing? What problems are being addressed?
The answers a Nothing, none and none.

So far, the only thing the board has decided is that Goichberg is the
president, Jim Berry is vice-president, Randy Bauer is VP of Finance,
Randy Hough is Secretary and Joel Channing, Paul Truong and Susan
Polgar are Members-at-Large.

Sam Sloan
When did the board decide this?
On August 14, motion EB08-004 CLARIFICATION OF EB TITLES passed 7-0

http://www.uschess.org/org/govern/2008USCFEBMotions.pdf

Basically, the real titles, as authorized by the by-laws, are
President, Vice-President, Secretary, VP of Finance and Member-
atLarge.

Sam Sloan
