It
is with great sadness to inform you that I am stepping
down as chair of NCUC. Yesterday I was offered a job as a
policy advisor with ISOC, which I happily accepted.
In
light of this development, I feel issues of conflict of
interest may arise, which will prevent me from serving
NCUC and its membership the way I have done so far; to
this end, I have just informed the NCUC Executive
Committee that I am stepping down as NCUC Chair.
Subsequently,
I am invoking article VII of the existing charter:
VII.
Leaving Office
A.
An elected representative of the Executive Committee or
Policy Committee may submit an email or notice of
resignation to the Chair whenever circumstances call for
such an action.
B.
In the event of resignation of the Chair, the Executive
Committee shall within two weeks elect one of its
members to serve as interim Chair. If the remaining term
of the resigning Chair is greater than six (6) months, a
new election shall be organized.
I
will help and liaise with the EC in this transitional
period and will continue to be an individual member of
NCUC.
I
would like to wholeheartedly thank you all for your
support and trust during my term as NCUC Chair. I am so
very grateful that I have been given the chance to serve
you all.
With
appreciation,
KK
