Esteemed VNS members!

It's time to elect a new Vice President. We traditionally hold
our election before and/or during the MLA convention, alternating our officers
between Slavicists and Americanists.

Zoran Kuzmanovich, our current vice-president and non-Slavist, will become President. He and I nominate
Julian Connolly (University of Virginia) and Stephen Blackwell (University of Tennessee) for Vice President. All other officers will, we hope, remain in place.

The floor is open for further nominations and for discussion.

Best,
Priscilla
