Dear all,
I promise this is my last mailing for today. The invitation to nominate
members of the RAE2008 panel (or sub-panel) has just been issued. As you
will see from the information below and attached, the WGSG (or HoDs) are
eligible to nominate members. As if previous years, it would be great if
WGSG could make some nominations. I would suggest that we can discuss
this at the AGM in Glasgow, but since so many WGSG members are not going
to be there and it is rather close to the deadline, I'd like to invite
suggestions to me in the next week. Then we will have time to approach
relevant people and collect together the necessary paperwork. (Isn't the
summer vacation a great time for this to be happening?!)
As well as via WGSG, feel free to nominate via other committee members
of RGS or your Heads of Department.
All the best
Fiona

Dear all
Over the past 10 days we have agreed with the conference of heads of
geography departments to work together to submit a joint submission to
the
Funding Councils on the RAE2008.
We are aware that the summer is a very difficult time for contacting
individuals. You will see in the attached letter that we have asked for
a
completed nomination form to accompany each submission. However, this
may
prove impossible given that it is the summer period. Please send in
your
nominations, for all categories, even if you do not have the paperwork
completed.
I am going to be in Glasgow for much of the week of 9-13 August, and
from
14 - 22 August. Debbie will be covering the office in my absence.
While I
am in Glasgow I can be called at most times on my mobile 07785 325903.
Alternatively Jon Breckon (020 7 591 3008) will be in the RGS-IBG until
13
when he too comes up to Glasgow.
We look forward to hearing from you. We will send out a reminder on
26th
August, just in case you have forgotten....
With all good wishes
Lorraine
