REPORT


The 1989 Team Since 1984, the year I started serving MRS, our membership has more than tripled and our operating revenue has increased more than fourfold. MRS is now being recognized nationally and internationally as one of the leading materials societies. Our dynamic growth can only be attributed to the overwhelming dedication of the membership. Good ideas from members are continually implemented and endorsed. Each year we always do something new or different. I'd like to quote one of our colleagues who recently told me: "MRS is great. My 'good' ideas get implemented right away! I would like to devote more energy in serving the Society." Indeed, many of us who have the opportunity to serve find it very rewarding. Some of you may know that MRS is rapidly going through a period of growth "pain" that is quite normal for any organization. In the next few years we can anticipate even more innovation and change as we move into the new decade.

Many have voluntarily devoted their time to serve the Society in numerous capacities. As we try to implement new ideas and strategies in the coming years, without a doubt we need more volunteers and membership participation in every aspect of the Society. In December 19881 appointed a group of dedicated, well-experienced members as Committee Chairs to serve the Society. Each Committee will have sets of shortand long- term goals to achieve, and each committee member will have a small project to work on. The MRS Committee Chairs are listed below. "The 1989 Team" welcomes your suggestions, ideas...and especially your support. Please feel free to contact them directly. I look forward to serving and working with you in 1989. On behalf of the Executive Committee, I extend our best wishes to you and your families for a prosperous New Year. R.P.H. Chang 1989 MRS President
