We fly into the clouds and to other worlds and beyond. Our chosen profession is exciting, and we must bring that perspective to the next generation. AIAA is unique in its ability to bring together researchers, technologists, and managers from industry, government, and academia to pursue a shared aerospace passion. I have had the unique opportunity to split my career between these three, and I intend to draw upon their collective strength. It is precisely our ability to share skills and focus that I will bring to the position of Vice President-Elect, Education. AIAA must expand the scope of our student activities to provide strong STEM education support, as well as integrate students from other disciplines. We will evangelize aerospace and attract an increasingly diverse group of students to our profession. The aerospace enrollment across our universities is growing, but we are falling short in attracting these students to AIAA. The biggest challenge facing AIAA today is capturing students as undergraduates and encouraging them to continue with AIAA throughout their aerospace careers. With the graying of our workforce, retention of talented students is increasingly critical. It will be my priority to focus AIAA educational activities on undergraduate retention and professional development. In doing so we must attract the next generation to AIAA, their future professional home. We must not waver on our commitment to quality education. It is critical that we continue to play a role in ABET accreditation and ensure that all the undergraduates across the aerospace programs meet the high standards that our profession demands. B.S.

5 Vice President-Elect, Public Policy James A. Horkovich (Fellow) National limitations on conference attendance by government employees persist and present a continuing threat to the Institute s health. Continuous engagement at all levels is essential to expand national and state-level initiatives with policy and decision makers to further the understanding of the benefits of aerospace technologies and ensure essential resource allocations, grow innovative research and provide workforce stability. Now in my 40th year of active service to the Institute, I bring experience, knowledge and demonstrated successes from activities across all levels of the Institute from local section to the national level and have been an active and available mentor. I have chaired national conferences and fostered coordination on common interests across other professional societies including the Directed Energy Professional Society (DEPS), SPIE, IEEE, and the Optical Society of America (OSA). I successfully championed formation of the Directed Energy Systems Program Committee. Extending its reach through the Institute s public policy efforts in Congressional Visits Day and ongoing frequent engagement with representatives and their staffs led to the formation of the Caucus for Directed Energy in the U.S. House of Representatives and is my model for continuous engagement with policymakers and staffs at the national and state level. Completing my second (and final) three-year term as Vice President of the Board of Directors of DEPS for Public Policy, I totally commit my attention, energy, experience, and resources to vigorous and full-time pursuit of those public policy issues most critical to the future of the Institute and pledge to deliver a focused, integrated public policy approach to provide the highest value and return to you the members.

John Rose Public policy plays a vital, but often overlooked, role in the health and future of our industry. Most people tend to associate the support of public policy with lobbying. But at AIAA, public policy is about advocacy. It is the responsibility of the Public Policy Committee (PPC) to be the voice for AIAA members when it comes to legislative and policy issues. Only by channeling the voices of its 35,000+ members can its message be heard. As Vice President-Elect, Public Policy, I intend to strengthen, and where necessary, evolve that message so that in challenging times like these, there is no ambiguity as to the important contribution that AIAA s public policy activities have on our industry. I plan on achieving these goals by: Increasing the participation of the PPC and its members in AIAA s national forums as well as at the regional and local level through Public Policy focused tracts and sessions. Support and encourage member participation in public policy events such as Congressional Visits Day (CVD) and at the local level through AIAA involvement in state aerospace days and forums. Simplifying and strengthening AIAA s public policy message by working with our members and committee s to identify key, RELEVANT issues, then partnering with elected officials to address them. Making AIAA the Go To association for support to administration and congressional staff by providing legislation impact and expert testimony from across our highly skilled and experienced membership. Continue elevating the visibility of public policy within the Institute, regions, and sections by supporting the inclusion of public policy activities into the mainstream programs offered to our members.

6 Director At-Large Brett Anderson Since 1963, AIAA has worked through its members to advance the state of aerospace science, engineering, technology, operations, and policy to benefit our global society. Our challenge is build on AIAA s strengths with a focus on improving the value provided to our membership and industry. This means developing opportunities to increase public awareness of the contributions of the aerospace industry to our global economy. Working with the talented and motivated engineers and aerospace employees across the globe engaged in the Design, Build and Support of aerospace products has driven home the diversity and global impact of our chosen profession and its members. Those in our profession are motivated by the highest of callings. To bring people together ; To protect those who put their trust in us ; To push and strive against the boundaries of gravity and air, to build something better. Through my experiences as a part of the Technical, Membership, and Educational Committees, as well as working with much of the leadership in our organization, I ve learned a great deal of what our members expect from AIAA. While I ve enjoyed the opportunity to serve in these roles, it is more important that the experiences in those roles will allow me to be a more effective advocate for a broad constituency. As the global economy continues to change, our industry changes with it. The underlying goal needs to be service to our membership and value to our society. Working together we can ensure that AIAA maintains that focus. I look forward to serving our members.

These challenges call for tactical and strategic initiatives. I will work with the AIAA Board, the TCs and the AIAA members and draw on my decades of service to AIAA to help address these growing challenges. In my previous positions as Chair of the Aerospace Department Chairs Association (ADCA) and as Department Head, I have helped to significantly increase AIAA students membership. I have also worked with our members to chair successful conferences and productive TCs. I look forward to continued and growing successes with these and the other challenges mentioned above if elected. The highly publicized failures of the Virgin Galactic spacecraft and of the Antares rocket in October have put the space program at the forefront of national discourse. The current challenges are distinct from those we faced decades ago at the dawn of the aerospace era when the Cold War, the national fiscal landscape, and the preeminence of U.S. science and technology provided the framework to tackle grand challenges. This century calls for new paradigms, and I would be honored to be part of the developing solutions with you. Having already served as Deputy Director has positioned me to serve successfully if elected. B.S., M.S., Ph.D. from MIT in Aerospace Engineering (1981, 1982, 1986).

10 Director Technical, Aerospace Sciences Group Jim Keenan AIAA has encountered a challenging time in its history. Investment in R&D has remained stagnant or declined while new large-scale engineering programs are not emerging to engage the workforce. To overcome some of these issues, the AIAA conference model was modified to increase the visibility of the aerospace profession and to provide opportunities for all of our members. The first cycle of the New Event Model was completed during My future goals are to strengthen AIAA and its technical and program committees by: Improvement of our new conference structure. During the next 3 years, I will continue to monitor the health of our AIAA technical efforts and expand the Aerospace Sciences Group involvement in the new forum structure, including identifying dynamic keynote speakers and relevant panel sessions. The long-term goal is to increase interest in AIAA participation of members who have moved to new responsibilities in their aerospace career while maintaining our core strength of world-class and leading-edge technical presentations and papers. An increased and diverse group of conference attendees will aid all members in networking opportunities. Increasing our technical footprint to include emerging technologies and aerospace systems. This will allow expansion into future areas critical to aerospace technology, broaden our portfolio, and reduce the impact of a fluctuating economy. As Director, I intend to expand the scopes of conferences to include program and system sessions while insuring that our current technical core remains intact. Engaging new technologies to increase our young professional participation. I will lead the effort to examine social sites and electronic media to increase interaction of our members in nontraditional formats.

11 Director Region II John Blanton (Fellow) AIAA and other engineering technical societies face serious challenges in remaining relevant in a rapidly evolving world. An important success metric has been, and always will be, membership vitality. In recent years the fraction of practicing engineers who are members of an engineering technical society has steadily decreased. The reason is obvious. Most engineers today do not consider the value of membership to be worth the cost of dues. Those of us who have been very active in AIAA would disagree, but we are the exceptions. A steadily increasing majority of practicing engineers consider technical societies to be irrelevant to their career. I have been very active in AIAA at the local, regional, and institute level for 37 years, and I can avow that AIAA membership has had profound positive benefits. But we are in a different environment now than we were in 1978, and new graduates today have different needs. AIAA must continually adapt and evolve to meet these needs. My goal as Region II Director is to actively drive AIAA membership revitalization at the grassroots level by identifying linkages between the needs of both new and seasoned aerospace engineers and the programs and products of AIAA. Progress toward this goal will require effective communication with grassroots aerospace engineers (both AIAA members and nonmembers), and translating the inputs into AIAA actions at the Institute level to enhance member value.

Mark S. Whorton Active involvement in AIAA has been at the core of my professional development and has enriched my career in many ways. As Director, Region II, I will build on the experience gained through leadership at the Student Chapter, Regional, Technical Committee/Conference, and Technical Activities Committee levels to more broadly serve the society and work to ensure that the society continues to achieve the AIAA mission of serving the aerospace workforce and advancing the state of the aerospace disciplines. As Director, Region II, one of my primary goals will be to increase participation in technical activities and AIAA programs to ensure growth and vitality of the workforce and sustained health of the society. Foundational to AIAA s vision of shaping the aerospace profession is the excellence of the society s technical activities. I will work to ensure that Region II constituents benefit from the value of society membership and promote increased participation in the society at the local, regional and national level. Region II members have a tremendous wealth of experience to share with the students in the regional schools and universities and I will work to build upon and enhance the excellent STEM activities underway in the region.
