Another International MUSE Conference is in the history books. All the planning and work during the last year came to fruition and the conference ended as a success.

During her
talk and throughout the conference I saw tweets and posts about this topic.
“Why not you?” unofficially developed into the conference theme.
As I
continued through the week I heard about many retirements and job changes. It
seems to be a time of transition for MUSE, a season to bring in new blood, an
opportunity to refresh and reenergize the organization.

MUSE is different from so many other organizations. Though it sounds cliché, MUSE really is truly about its members. We have a vey small staff to run the operations, and everything else is dependent upon the involvement of the membership.
All the education, all the networking, all the programs - they happen because of you, the MUSE members.
Take a
look at the conference photos (and tag yourself!): 2014 International MUSE Conference Photos.
You will see all kinds of
people with all kinds of backgrounds. Everyone here probably had a reason to
not attend, or present, or sponsor. But they did, and the conference was
successful because of them.

Take care friends,
