Scientific Staff Changes (1Dec93) (from NSO, NOAO Newsletter No. 36, 1 December 1993) After more than thirty years with the solar research program at Kitt Peak, Bill Livingston retired on 30 September. Bill's career as a solar physicist has been a full one including many major contributions in observational astronomy. As an Emeritus Astronomer, we anticipate that he will continue his very active participation in NSO. Bob Howard moves to a half-time position. Bob maintained a high level of scientific productivity throughout the years, so we expect to hear much of him even at the 50% level. Thank you Bill and Bob for your many contributions to the Observatory. We look forward to more of the same! We will see a number of young astronomers joining us. These include Doug Braun and Yu Hong Fan (Hawaii), Andrew Jones (Netherlands), Christoph Keller (Zurich), Sydney D'Silva (India), and Ye Ming Gu (U. of Arizona). Welcome! Jacques Beckers, John Leibacher
