NAPEHE OFFICER/COMMITTEE CHAIR REPORT FORM
PROGRESS REPORT
Name of Office: Editor, Chronicle of Kinesiology and Physical Education in Higher Education
Person Submitting Report: Jimmy H. Ishee
Recommendations: My term as editor will end January, 2005. I recommend Dr. Alison Wrynn of California State University Long Beach for the position of editor. I have discussed this with Dr. Wrynn and she is willing to assume this responsibility. She is currently Associate Editor for Research. I believe she will do an excellent job.

The Chronicle was published three times during 2004 as contracted with Human Kinetics. The February, 2005 issue of the Chronicle has been submitted to the printer and will be mailed after the holidays. The next deadline for submissions is February 15, 2005 for the May, 2005 issue.
