VI. NSF STCERSP Administration and Management

Director’s Narrative

Figure VI.1 shows the organization chart for the Center. There have been no significant changes to the proposed organizational structure since November 1, 1999 though some specific personnel changes have been made. Dr. Everett I. Baucom filled the position of Deputy Director on January 1, 2000, after 30 years with E. I. du Pont de Nemours. Several support staff were added, including an administrative assistant, an accountant, and a computer specialist to assist with updating our website and with teleconferencing. There were several leadership changes in the thrust areas. V. N. Kabadi assumed leadership of Thrust Area B, partly in an attempt to provide NCA&T a stronger role in the Center. J. M. DeSimone and G. W. Roberts temporarily joined R. M. Kelly as leaders of Thrust Area D.
