New President, Board Members Elected
A new president and two new board members were elected by those attending the Fall 2015 Convention. Longtime member Laura Trendle Polus was elected president, replacing Sue Stephens, who did not run again after two years in office. All other Executive Officers did run again, and were re-elected by acclamation. Stephens now moves to the Immediate Past President role. Five Board Member terms were up for election, and seven candidates were nominated. The winning candidates are: Aaron Eades, Brian Adams, Jennifer Fuller, and the two newcomers, Cass Herrington of WCBU-FM in Peoria and Adam Studzinski from WJBC-AM in Bloomington. Board members are elected to two-year terms and officers serve one-year terms.
