    All,

    I have been contacted by a member for the Office of Intellectual Freedom about two new committees that need round table liaisons:

    • Intellectual Freedom Committee (IFC)
    • Committee on Professional Ethics (COPE)

    If any member is interested in serving on one of these committees please respond to my be no later than September 1st at 5:00 PM. I unfortunately don't have any details in how often they will meet, but would like the volunteer to also commit to reporting to myself and the board at meetings after the committee meets. Our board meetings are the second Thursday of each month at noon central.

    If you have any questions feel free to send them to me and I'll do my best to answer them for you.

    Thanks,

    George

    GameRT President
