From the Editor: Thanks!
Wendy S. Becker
Editor’s Note: I am proud to dedicate my final issue to Frank Landy.
The TIP editor serves the Society for 3 years. My term ends with the April 2010 issue, so the time has come to say “thank you” and “goodbye.” I have been both honored and privileged to serve, and I am proud to say that I have made many new friends.

Administrative Office
SIOP is indeed fortunate to have a group of hard-working individuals in the Administrative Office (AO), and TIP benefits from the skills and talent of each and every one. Jen Baker serves as liaison to the TIP editor; Jen is simply a joy to work with. Thanks, Jen! Clif Boutelle, Larry Nader, Lori Peake, Linda Lentz, Stephany Schings, Jeremy Hopkins, Tracy Vanneman, Dave Nershi—thanks to everyone in the AO whose efforts “behind the scenes” make TIP possible. New changes lie ahead for TIP, and AO has been working hard on an online submission process—stay tuned!
Contributors, Reviewers, and Readers
I would like to thank TIP contributors, reviewers, and readers. Thanks authors for sending in your best work—you make TIP a very readable, very informative communication vehicle for SIOP members and readers. TIP welcomes views from both academics and practitioners, from both the public and private sectors, and from both professional and student members. I have strived during my tenure to keep TIP content unique—provocative, thought-provoking, educational. Our community is a multitalented group, indeed. Witness the creative photographs that grace our cover each issue. Yes, SIOP members are truly talented. Keep ’em coming!
Meet the TIP Editorial Board in Atlanta!
Finally, if you are coming to Atlanta to celebrate SIOP’s 25th anniversary, please stop by the TIP Conversation Hour. There you can meet editorial board members and learn more about how to contribute to TIP. Lori Foster Thompson and I will introduce Lisa Steelman, the new TIP editor. The program takes place from 3:30–4:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 10 in Room 203.
See you in Atlanta!
