Decision on Tomorrow's Chapter Meeting to be made by 5pm today

Dear Members and Friends,

Given the fluid and dynamic situation with the current manhunt in Boston, the organizers of tomorrow's AMS-NE chapter meeting at Northeastern have decided to wait to see how the situation unfolds before cancelling the meeting. We will make a decision at 5pm EST and will let you know. We sincerely hope that those who are presenting papers will get the chance to do so, but we also want to make sure that people feel safe both at the meeting and in transit.

Thank you for your patience.  Please watch this blog for updates.  I will also send a message out via the Google Groups list and the Facebook group.

I hope you are all safe, and wish you the very best during this difficult time.

All best,
Rebecca Marchand
AMS-NE President
