In his 22 years as a member of AASG and State Geologist of Wisconsin, Jamie has made innumerable contributions to both his own State Survey as well as to the AASG organization.  Jamie has represented AASG to the AGI, GSA, and the NRC where he served on the Board of Earth Sciences and Resources, and has a long and successful association with the National Cooperative Geological Mapping Program.  Jamie has served as AASG Secretary/Treasurer, Vice President, and President.

Jamie will be formally presented with this well-deserved award at the 2015 AASG Annual Business Meeting in Flagstaff, Arizona, June 17.  Please join me in thanking and congratulating our colleague on this achievement.
