[asiacouncil] Kudos to David Starling for 3 years of leadership

[Eric Kendrick]

Asia Council colleagues,

Join me in thanking David Starling for his three years of service as Chair of the Asia Council.  He brought to this position much knowledge and experience not only in International Education and Asia Studies and Initiatives, but with the inner workings of the USG SCIE (System Council for International Education). As the most far flung of all of us down in Valdosta, David was always at all programs, including the annual faculty development workshops in Atlanta.  We look forward to his continued influence in the Asia Council, especially in the area of study abroad.

Thanks again, David!

Eric

Good Morning Asianists:



I have a few updates from the meeting on Friday in case you weren't able to attend.



Dr. Eric Spears from Columbus State was elected chair of the Asia Council at Friday's meeting.  Dr. Salli Vargis has graciously agreed to continue as Vice-Chair.



The focus of the meeting was preparation for the 2019 Asia Council workshop, the 2020 Asian Studies Development Program Conference hosted by in Atlanta by the Asia Council, and discussion of the new study abroad administrative structure for USG World Council programs.



If you have proposals for the 2019 workshop, please contact Eric Spears, so he can organize the proposals and we can move forward with planning.



Sincerely,






David Starling
