Changes to the MCTM ByLaws
There have been a few other changes to the makeup of the Board of Directors. As we moved from fall and spring conferences to a single conference in the spring. The Board made the decision to reduce the number of Vice Presidents from six to four. The two post-secondary Vice President positions, Mathematics and Mathematics Education, have been combined into a single position: Vice President Higher Education. Ryota Matsuura position title will change from Vice President Mathematics to Vice President Higher Education. The Vice President At Large position was also eliminated. Karen Hyers held this position and was appointed to the position of Vice President High School which was previously held by Sherri Kruger.
