Dear Academy Member Some years are more susceptible than others to characterization with a glib phrase. For some, for example, this will be "The Year the Oscars were Stolen." Those of us who were involved, of course, will always remember that week, and we'll probably even refer to the year that way. But the 12 months were too filled with expanded programs, new programs and planned programs for that one event to characterize it. It truly was a transitional year. The switch from the 1900s to the 2000s, which fell midway in our fiscal accounting, is an excellent metaphor for this Academy year, firmly grounded in a tradition of excellence but looking forward to a blossoming future. We began to see the effects of our improved financial position. We tripled the funding of our grants program, announced the creation of an Academy Film Scholars competition and launched the first of what will be an ongoing series of membership forums. Membership committees worked diligently throughout the year on questions of awards categori es and branch makeup, while the staff searched for physical space into which some of the expanded and new programs can move.
