Alright, we're losing Lori next year.. She's been doing FIRST for the last 5 years while on a sabbatical from her teaching position at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy.. Her sabbatical ends this summer.. Actually it's August 15th.. That's why FIRST has put up that employment opportunity on the web.. They need a permanent replacement for Lori.. I'm hoping that she'll stay in touch with all us FIRST-a-holics when she goes back.. Well, we should wish her the best and all the good stuff.. And I just thought that all you people might want to know that..

The message you are referring to was SENT by Lori, but it was WRITTEN by VINCE.

Vince Wilczynski is the guy who is leaving.

From: -Lori Buckley
To: To@usfirst.org.all.Team.Contacts

To all team contacts -

I'd like to use this forum to thank all of you for your hard work this year
making the program a success. I'd also like to take this opportunity to
recognize and applaud the FIRST staff that made the competition work. To
both groups, thousands of lives have been touched and many have been
transformed.

As some of you know, I have been serving as the Director of the Robtoics
Competition while on sabbatical from my teaching position at the U.S. Coast
Guard Academy. Having been involved with FIRST on a team basis since '93,
I welcomed the chance to help the program in a different area. Since my
sabbatical ends this summer (August 15), FIRST needs to hire a permanent
replacement for my position.

I feel very strong that the person who takes on this position must have
FIRST experience as a team leader. I've inlcuded a job description below
and ask that you distribute this to anyone that you may think qualifies and
is interested. Even if a person does not satisfy each criteria, I
encourage them to submit an application.

Thanks again for your hard work and please contact me if you would like any
additional information on the position - Vince

managers that develop the Foundation’s policy, standards and strategy.

At least five years worth of team oriented management experience is highly
desirable, preferably in the areas of strategic planning and operations.

multidisciplinary engineering background are beneficial. The ability to
lead a team and effectively work with the leaders from a broad spectrum of
national engineering, research, manufacturing, computer, and communication
businesses, as well as education and government leaders is necessary. The
candidate must be familiar with working with volunteer organizations and
for profit businesses, and have a documented history of guiding design
ideas into reality.
