Re: CoSIDA Board of Directors and divisional leadership updates and initiatives for month of March
We hope you made it through the annual "March Madness" and will now enjoy the wonderful spring sports season. We encourage you to read through this newsletter from the CoSIDA Board which reviews many things that have, or will, take place within our organization. We also encourage you to review the #cosida13 Convention central webpages and read up on various things that will be taking place in Orlando and make your plans to join your colleagues for what promises to be a wonderful professional continuing education gathering.
