Dear AFC Board Members:

As often happens, there is good news and bad news.  The good news is that
Ellen Lovell has accepted the position of President of Marlboro College in
Brattleboro, Vermont!!  This is a wonderful, exciting new direction for
Ellen's very distinguished career, and it brings her "back home."  She
assumes her new post at the end of January, 2004.

The bad news, of course, is that WE WILL MISS HER!!!  Ellen has done an
outstanding job of establishing the Veterans History Project as a national
project with high visibility and incredible grassroots participation.  She
has assembled a top-notch staff who are ready to carry on this rewarding
work and fulfill the mission of the VHP.  Diane Kresh and I have great
confidence in the VHP staff and our collective ability to expand and grow
the project as intended, but we all realize that Ellen is part of the
"family" and her presence and strong leadership will be greatly missed.

Ellen will be with us until the end of January, as we plan for a smooth
transition.  If you want to email her directly, she is at [log in to unmask] I
know that you join me in offering heartfelt congratulations on this
well-deserved appointment and wishing Ellen all the best as she returns to
Vermont.

Best wishes to everyone for a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Peggy
