[Histling-l] ISHL Nominations

[John Charles Smith]

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR ALL MEMBERS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY FOR HISTORICAL LINGUISTICS



Dear Friends and Colleagues,



Several positions in the Society will fall vacant this year, and at the Business Meeting to be held during the Canberra ICHL a vote will be taken on proposals to fill these vacancies.  I have now heard from the ISHL Nominating Committee, who have made the following nominations:



i)  FUTURE PRESIDENT/CONFERENCE DIRECTOR (for 2023)



Jadranka Gvozdanović

(Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg, Germany)



ii)  MEMBER OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE (to serve until 2025)



Mark Harvey

(University of Newcastle, Newcastle NSW, Australia)



iii)  MEMBERS OF NOMINATING COMMITTEE



a) MEMBER OF NOMINATING COMMITTEE (to serve until 2027)



Eugen Hill

(Universität Köln, Germany)



b) MEMBER OF NOMINATING COMMITTEE (to serve until 2021)


Éric Mathieu (University of Ottawa, Ottawa ON, Canada), who was due to become the senior member of the Nominating Committee and take up the chair, has announced his resignation from the Committee.  A replacement is therefore needed, to serve for the remainder of his term (until 2021) and to act as Chair.  The Nominating Committee proposes



Elly van Gelderen

(Arizona State University, Tempe AZ, USA)



for this position.



iv)  SECRETARY



The Nominating Committee proposes that John Charles Smith (University of Oxford, UK) should continue to serve as Secretary of the Society.



With these nominations, the composition of the Society's Committees will be as follows:

Other Members:

According to the Society's Constitution, individual members may also make nominations.  Should anyone wish to do so, could they please let both the Secretary (johncharles.smith at stcatz.ox.ac.uk) and the current Chair of the Nominating Committee (abergs at uos.de) know by email as soon as possible, and in any event before 15 June.  Nominations will require the signatures of six proposers and the written consent of the nominee.  The nominee and all of the proposers should be members of the Society.



I look forward to seeing you in Canberra.



All good wishes,



John Charles Smith

Secretary, ISHL
