Welcome to the new school year and all the challenges a fresh
year brings. This issue of The Clipboard incorporates the
change of editors from President Ken Lupole to myself, assisted
by Vince DeCerchio and Lee Struble. This edition will highlight
the Saratoga Springs Annual
Conference in June. Thanks again to Dennis, Larry, Lori and for
Skidmore College, and all the fine staff who helped make it a
huge success. Also thanks to Mike Byrne, from Syracuse University
for supplying numerous photographs of the various activities related
to the conference, which you will see throughout this issue.
As the new editor of The Clipboard, I hope to continue
the flow of valuable and pertinent information and maintain the
close kinship that we foster as an association. To achieve this
goal, I would like to solicit and encourage correspondence and
