SESG Business Meeting Minutes - June 21, 2014 Respectfully submitted by: Dr. Stuart Miller Dr. Timothy Mihle called the general assembly meeting of the Southern Endodontic Study Group to order at 12:00 p.m. and thanked everyone for staying after the course to participate in the business meeting. The minutes from June 15, 2013 were approved. Treasurer’s Report - Dr. Stuart Miller reported the current balance in the checkbook is approximately $180,000. The SESG bookkeeping is now being entered into QuickBooks and reports are provided to the Steering Committee. He said the SESG now is able to accept credit cards. He shared that PNC Bank recommended some funds be moved from the checking account into an investment account, such as a money market. The SESG Steering Committee will be discussing this further at a future conference call. Membership Report – Dr. Obermayr presented the report as printed. She welcomed new members in attendance. Review of the SESG Bylaws re: Life Membership. Motion made to change the age for Life Membership from 60 to 65. Motion adopted unanimously. Three applications for Life Membership were approved (grandfathered in under old bylaws). Administrative Assistant – Dr. Mihle reminded everyone that last year the group decided to hire an administrative assistant. Marlinda Fulton thanked the group for allowing her to attend the meeting and gave a brief overview of her experience with dental associations. Marlinda left the room to allow for discussion and vote to retain/dismiss. Retained. Reduced Meeting Registration Fee for Life Members – Dr. Obermayr explained that two years ago the Steering Committee was supposed to report on this. She stressed that Life Members in the SESG are highly valued and are respected and provide guidance. She said that for years to come the SESG must encourage Life Members to continue to attend the meeting and participate. The SESG Steering Committee discussed this issue two years ago and it was decided at this time it was not fiscally responsible to have reduced meeting fees for Life Members. The Steering Committee is challenged to try and make meetings profitable and she suggested that the group revisit this issue after the SESG has financial history to allow for a more sound decision. Website Usage – Dr. Obermayr explained that the SESG is charged for each change to the site. She is looking into ways to save money with website maintenance. The Steering Committee may retain the present company, but are also looking at other options. Incoming SESG Officer – The Steering Committee with approval from the members present welcomed Dr. Joseph Bernier as the new Program Chair/Steering Committee Member. Southwest Endodontic Study Club – Dr. Joel Small reported this group has expressed an interest to attend the SESG meeting at the Biltmore. The Southwest Members registration fee for the 2015 meeting should be at the non-member rate. A motion was made to invite the Southwest group to the 2015 meeting. Motion adopted unanimously. There being no further discussion a motion was made at 12:38 p.m. to adjourn the meeting. Motion adopted unanimously. 2 y! e e vit In Le a pe t’s gr o rt ow j n oi ou a od t be m e m r r ! ip h s APPLICATION FOR MEMBERSHIP NAME:_______________________________________________________________________________ (Last) (First) (Middle) OFFICE: Street:____________________________________________________________________ City:_________________________________State_________Zip_____________________ Phone: (____)___________________ Fax: (____)__________________ Email: _____________________________________________________ HOME: Street:____________________________________________________________________ City:_________________________________State_________Zip_____________________ Phone: (____)___________________ Fax: (____)__________________ Email: _____________________________________________________ SPOUSE:________________________________ CHILDREN:___________________________________ I prefer to receive SESG correspondence at: ( ) Office ( ) Home EDUCATON: Dental School or College:__________________________________________________________________ Year of Graduation:___________________Degree:_________________________ Graduate School or Specialty Program:_______________________________________________________ Year of Graduation:___________________Degree or Certificate:__________________________________ Other Major Programs:____________________________________________________________________ TYPE OF PRACTICE: ( ( ) General Practice ) Retired ( ( ) Limited Practice ) Solo CURRENT MEMBERSHIPS: ( ) American Dental Association ( ) American Association of Endodontists (required for this application) ( ) Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontists ( ) Other___________________________________________________ Please see reverse side. 3 ( ( ) Academic/Research ) Group APPLICATION FOR SESG MEMBERSHIP-continued CURRENT STAFF OR FACULTY APPOINTMENTS: Dental School or College:_____________________________________________________________ Title:____________________________________ Hospitals:__________________________________________________________________________ Title:__________________________________________ PUBLICATIONS: ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ ENDODONTIC LECTURES: ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________ APPLICANT’S SIGNATURE:______________________________________________________________ DATE:____________________________________ Please make check out to SESG for $125.00 ($25.00 application fee & $100 Annual Dues) and return to: SESG c/o P.O.
