Dear Colleagues:

their two-year terms at the conclusion of the INFORMS 2016 annual meeting:
Aida Khajavirad, Daniel Robinson, and Warren Powell.

We are currently seeking nominations of candidates for the following
positions:

   - Vice-Chair for Global Optimization
   - Vice-Chair for Nonlinear Optimization
   - Vice-Chair for Optimization Under Uncertainty

Self-nominations for all of these positions are encouraged. Vice-Chairs
serve a two-year term. According to Society Bylaws,
"*The main responsibility of the Vice Chairs will be to help INFORMS Local
Organizing committees identify cluster chairs and/or session chairs for the
annual meetings. In general, the Vice Chairs shall serve as the point of
contact with their sub-disciplines.*"
