Immediately upon election to national office, members of the Board of Directors and �presidential succession� (president-elect, president, and immediate past president) begin or in many cases continue to work with staff in a variety of capacities according to their needs and duties.  Through the Office of the ACS Secretary, the president works with a staff assistant,  who coordinates schedules, arranges travel, makes appointments, assists with official visits to local sections, international chapters, etc., and �other duties as requested.�  This presentation focuses on the latter, drawing from recollections of staff employed at ACS during Dr. Pavlath's time on the ACS Board of Directors and as President during the Society's 125th Anniversary.
