BOARD OF TRUSTEES Chairman Dear IMSA Shareholders, John H. McEachern Jr. President Wayne Circuits Incorporated s president of Illinois Wesleyan University in Bloomington, I am delighted Vice-Chairman to write to you about the gifted mind and the important role IMSA plays in Sheila MB Griffin A Vice President and Director furthering gifted education. IMSA's contributions serve other institutions of higher Strategic Marketing Office Motorola Incorporated learning in Illinois and the nation as we seek to better prepare students for living and Trustees succeeding in the new millennium. Dr. Joseph Cipfl In education, we teach what we know, with research often viewed by some to Executive Director Illinois Community College Board be a useless and expensive diversion. Yet research and discovery are often the most Fred Conforti exciting and effective ways of teaching. This is the very essence of IMSA, where President and Chief Executive Officer discovery-based, integrative learning and research happen every day within this Pittway Systems Technology Group educational laboratory. At IMSA, students and teachers are asked to construct Dr. Sherry R. Eagle Superintendent their own knowledge rather than simply regurgitate facts and figures. Aurora West School District #129 As I have studied the multi-talented, this is a common theme for the vibrant and Dr. Forest Etheredge Dean gifted mind- the fascination of exploring the unknown from field to field. Goethe, the School of Business and Professional Studies Aurora University poet, basically invented the field of morphology. A musician found the planet Uranus. Bertrand Russell went so far as to say that had he read all the previous literature, he Steve Isoye Science Department Chairperson would not have made the mathematical discoveries he did. So too, even college and Highland Park High School younger students have the possibility of turning their basic studies into research to Dr. Glenn "Max" McGee State Superintendent make real scientific contributions. Illinois State Board of Education This spring at Illinois Wesleyan's research conference, senior biology major Karen James D. Pearson President Lindahl amazed us all with her calm announcement that she had found a new species, Aurora Metals Division L.L.C. a tardigrade barely a millimeter long, but a species never seen before in North Dr. Marsha R.

Who can rule out an IMSA student Jesus Manuel Sosa perhaps finding another unknown species while helping in this search? Administrator Chicago Public Schools, Region One This spring, IMSA hosted its 11th Annual Presentation Day, where students Dr. Alfonzo Thurman presented the results of their research in physics, pediatric aids, artificial intelligence, Dean, College of Education Northern Illinois University impressionism, robotics and holography. This is just one reason why I have been so Dr. Michael S. Turner supportive and am so excited about IMSA. Its focus on student research and inquiry, Department Chairman real-world problem-solving, integrative learning and ethical leadership serves as a Department of Astronomy & Astrophysics The University of Chicago valuable teaching model, especially to other educators like myself who are passionate about helping students succeed in the classroom and in life.
