Mazza Principal KME Consulting, LLC 1998–99 Board of Directors IES of North America As I begin my first term as an RVP, I look back to my 24 years as an IESNA member and realize that the goals are still the same, the members are still the same, but the times have changed. We now do lighting design by computer, we communicate by faxes and e-mail. Things move faster and faster and we have less time to devote to volunteering, to families, and to ourselves. To survive in the coming century we must all work at keeping the Society alive and well. But if we are to progress in life, we must make time for the important things. I have found that the time I volunteer for the IESNA has been time well spent. The educational programs have helped me in my lighting designs, and as Education Co-Chair in the British Columbia Section I have had the satisfaction of seeing hundreds of students take the ED-100 and ED- 150 courses. Many of the students have gone on to do great things in the lighting community. With the advent of computer technology, the lighting courses we provide are even more important, so that designers have a basic knowledge. We need to maintain these courses, keep them up to date, and expand them where necessary. We have had some wonderful conferences over the years and if we all work together, we can look forward to many more wonderful conferences. But, we have to work smarter now. It takes a great deal of work to arrange a conference and it is only as good as its speaker programs. That is the key to success. REGIONAL VOICES When we had local regional conferences, we were the only game in the area. Even though there are other ways to gain information, the human contact and fellowship cannot be duplicated. We must support our local conferences and also support the Annual Conference. IESNA has many committees that the membership is invited to be a part of, so your voice can be heard in fields where you are knowledgeable. To survive in the coming century we must all work at keeping the Society alive and well. Many of you can look back at your last 24 years or longer and say it’s been a rewarding experience. I hope to enjoy our IESNA associations as much as possible, which is why I became an RVP; I wanted to return something to the Society. So I guess it’s that old saying: “What can I do for the Society, not what can it do for me.” We all know what it can do for us—keep us up to date on new developments, provide educational programs, inform and entertain us through LD+A, plus there’s the networking and help. I look forward to the rest of my term and also to meeting many of you at LIGHTFAIR INTERNATIONAL in San Francisco in May and the Annual Conference in New Orleans in August.
