As every year, this past November saw the election of new members to the Speech and Language Technical Committee to take the places of those whose 3-year terms are coming to an end. SLTC membership is grouped by subject area, and in this year’s election (for the 2017-2019 term) we had 17 openings in 8 areas. Current members are eligible to run for a consecutive term once.
This welcome message marks the start of the new year and comes at the tail end of a several months long busy period of the SLTC. First of all, there is the yearly election cycle, carefully administered by our election sub-committee. Please join me in thanking 12 member who retired their position at the end of 2016: Tomoki Toda, Gernot Kubin, Maurizio Omologo, Nicholas Evans, Larry Heck, Peder Olsen, Frank Seide, Mark Hasegawa-Johnson, Deep Sen, Svetlana Stoyanchev, Jasha Droppo and George Saon. And please join me in welcoming the class of 2019.
