With more than 40% of eligible voters participating, ASA members have elected Arne L. Kalleberg of the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill as President-Elect, Douglas McAdam of Stanford University as Vice President-Elect, and Donald Tomaskovic-Devey as Secretary-Elect. Kalleberg, McAdam, and Tomaskovic-Devey will serve one year as Elect and will then assume office at the end of the 2007 Annual Meeting. Kalleberg and the 2008 Program Committee will be responsible for shaping the 2008 ASA Annual Meeting, scheduled for August 1-4, 2008, in Boston.
Voters also elected four new Members-at-Large to serve on the ASA Council: Dalton Conley, New York University; Mary E. Pattillo, Northwestern University; Mary Romero, Arizona State University; Rubén Rumbaut, University of California-Irvine. The new Council Members-at-Large will take office at the end of the Annual Meeting in Montreal.
Members also elected four new members to the Committee on Committees, six new members to the Committee on Nominations, and two new members to the Committee on Publications. Voters overwhelmingly approved four amendments to the Association’s bylaws, and by a narrower margin approved renaming two ASA awards: the ASA Distinguished Career of Scholarship Award will now be the W.E.B. DuBois Distinguished Career of Scholarship Award, and the DuBois-Johnson-Frasier Award will now be the Cox-Johnson-Frasier Award.
We extend our warmest congratulations to the newly elected officers and committee members, and thank everyone who served the Association by running for office and by voting in this election.
