| Abstract: |
Recently the Council of the American Astronomical Society (AAS) adopted its first-ever mission-and-vision statement.
Independently, the Astronomy Education Board (AEB), which has oversight of the Society’s educational activities, adopted new goals for the AAS education
program. Much of the responsibility for aligning the AAS mission-and-vision statement and AEB goals and implementing them is vested in a new position: AAS Press
Officer and Education and Outreach Coordinator. Here I describe the AAS’s priorities for education and public outreach and explain how they are being, or will be, achieved. |
