Research and Theory Division Members,
I hope those of you who attended last week's convention in Anaheim had an enriching experience and an uneventful return home. I know that I always return, invigorated with new ideas and feeling refreshed from catching-up with my long-time colleagues and meeting many new friends. I would like to extend a special thank you to those who presented as a part of our Research and Theory
Division program. In addition, I hope those of you who were unable to attend in Anaheim can join us next year in Jacksonville, Florida.
