In May 2019, the board of SEGH created a new level of membership: Fellow.
This is an invitation-only membership level and reflects the fact that the individual concerned has been very active within SEGH, or within the field which SEGH represents.
Do you know someone who you think should be a Fellow? If so, please write to the board, (segh.secretary@gmail.com) suggesting why you think this should be the case, providing some background to this person. The board will then consider the proposal, and make an invitation to that person, if appropriate.
