At the June 16 meeting, the Board of the American Institute for Psychoanalysis approved a statement of appreciation regarding Dr. Elizabeth Kilpatrick's service as Dean, to be sent to the Journal. This statement has been published in the current issue of The American Journal of Psychoanalysis.
Dr. Louis E. DeRosis was certified at the September 9 meeting.
