One year ago, Ada Finifter completed her service as Editor of the APSR and I assumed the post, assisted by Elizabeth Cook, the new Assistant Editor, and Editorial Interns John Donaldson, Jason MacDonald, and Tricia Mulligan; our new editorial office opened at The George Washington University; Susan Bickford and Greg McAvoy, the new Book Review Editors, opened their office at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, with a staff of Elizabeth K. Markovits, Maria Murray Riemann, and Carisa R. Showden; a new Editorial Board, 45-strong, was appointed and a six-member Executive Committee was named; and Cambridge University Press began publishing the APSR.
