Welcome to the Board of the ICD USA Section The Board of Regents of the USA Section is composed of 25 members.

There are 17 Regents, one from each ADA district. In addition, the eight Officers of the USA Section are Board members – President, President-Elect, Vice President, Immediate Past President, Registrar, Deputy Registrar, Treasurer, and Editor. The Regent’s term is four years beginning on January 1, with either four or five Regents rotating off the Board each year.

Regents are elected by the Board. The Board chooses Regents for qualities of leadership, stature in the dental community, and the ability to work closely with and maintain good liaisons with their districts.

Election as your district’s Regent is an incredible honor. With that honor comes the responsibility of using your wisdom and experience for the benefit of the College while representing your district in the finest way possible. Following your election, you will receive your Regent’s medallion and lapel pin from the Section President. You may choose to give your Vice Regent’s medallion to the incoming Vice Regent, assuming that was your previous position. PLEASE DO NOT TRANSPORT /REGENT LAPEL PIN IN LUGGAGE – The Regent lapel pin is 10k gold with a genuine diamond.

Things No One Ever Told You About Being a Regent 1.

During the Fall Board meeting, a photo of the Board is taken.

Gents should wear a coat and tie; similar appropriate attire for female Regents. Bring your Regent’s medallion and lapel pin to wear in the photo, taken during the morning meeting break.

2. A printed list of your Fellowship candidates will be given to you on the Convocation day. Candidates will have indicated exactly how they wish to be introduced. Each Regent introduces his District’s Fellows. Be sure you know the correct pronunciation for each candidate’s name. This is a big moment for them and their families.

3. It is helpful to have someone with you in the robing room. You will need to get your candidates arranged in alphabetical order for the processional. After the Convocation you will return to the robing room. Ensure the New Fellows receive their Fellowship packets, dinner tickets, and FICD lapel pins. Robes should be deposited in boxes throughout the room.

4. Wear your Regent medallion to the Convocation and Dinner Dance.

5. In addition to (301) 251-8861, the ICD USA Section Office has a toll-free number: (877) 806-4231. This number is intended to be used by the Officers and Board and not by the general membership.

6. You are reimbursed for coach airfare and your hotel room (there may be a cap per night) when attending Board meetings. You will be emailed a reimbursement voucher in Excel format. Fill it out and return with receipts to Registrar Wagner.

7. Each Regent receives a stipend every January to help offset personal expenses such as phone calls, postage, meals, etc. For tax purposes, you need to account for your expenses against the stipend amount.

8. There is a rehearsal the morning of the Convocation, which lasts about an hour. It is very important for Regents to be there on time.

There are many chances for error in the ceremony and we want to get them all ironed out in advance so it will flow smoothly. We do not want you to look unprofessional. Be there!!

9. Traditionally, each year the nominee for USA Section Vice President comes from the Regents whose terms are expiring that year. This is not set in stone, as it is possible for a nominee to come from outside the board.

10. Send to the Section Office your height and weight range to ensure that you will be properly fitted for the Convocation ceremony.

11. Send the Section Office a short bio and high-quality photo.

11. Regents are introduced during the speaking portions of the Dinner Dance. Regents sit with their Districts.

12. As you appoint Deputy Regents, keep in mind that one day they may become Regent. It could take eight years for this to occur, then the Regent term is four years. Some of the Regents will go on to become Officers, adding another four years, so a total of 16 years could be involved.

13. You can get mailing labels (no charge) for your District from the Section Office. They are generally mailed on the same day they are requested. Request an updated set of labels for each mailing.

14. You can also request email strings of your District and/or State Fellows. Request an updated string of emails for each blast.

14. Your District can nominate a non-dentist as an Honorary Candidate. Ask for a Sponsor Form from the Section Office. The nomination is made to the Awards Committee. Honorary members must be endorsed by at least five Fellows – exception: only two letters of endorsement are required for technology sector nominees – and must be endorsed by the Regent and Deputy Regent.

15. You are furnished with ICD stationery from the Section Office.

You can receive ICD generic envelopes (logo but no return address) by request. Type your letter on the computer using pre-set margins and then print out on the ICD stationery. If you want a stationery template, contact the Section Office.

16. A light continental breakfast is usually served prior to board meetings.

17. Familiarize yourself with the USA Section website, www.usaicd.org. There is much information available, including the Bylaws, committee makeup, and meeting dates. The roster of members is also found here. You must sign in using your unique username and password to see other Fellows’ contact information. Please inform the Section Office if you find stale information for your District.

18. Ultimately, the Regent shoulders the duty of making sure adequate numbers of candidates are nominated from the District. If you only have two or three new Fellows to introduce at the convocation, you have not done your best to identify worthy candidates. Start early, the process takes a while and the classes can fill rapidly near the end (May 15 deadline).

19. You have the power to appoint your Deputy Regents. If they are not doing their job, replace them! Your Deputy Regent can appoint as many Counselors as needed. Keep the Section Office informed of changes to your local leadership.

International College of Dentists USA Section DUTIES OF ICD REGENTS (Refer to ICD USA Section Bylaws, Article VIII and Article X, Section 1) DESCRIPTION “Regent” is the term to describe the leader of each of the seventeen ICD Districts in the US. Regents are elected by the Board of Regents for a term of four years. The seventeen Regents, along with the eight USA Section Officers, compose the USA Section Board of Regents, which is the governing body of the Section.

Each Regent is responsible for conducting and reporting the affairs of their District. Their roles are critically important in the governance of the Section. They implement the policy of the Board of Regents in their District and state chapters. They are expected to perform their duties in a thorough and timely manner.

DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES (could include but not limited to):      

  

Attend all meetings and functions of the Board of Regents.

Ensure that qualified candidates for Fellowship are identified and nominated in their District. Furthermore, it is expected that the District Induction goal for each District is realized.

Disseminate ICD information between the National and District ICD personnel. They will provide appropriate District/state Fellow or District accomplishments or activities to the Section Office. Section Office will relay BOR actions to their District personnel.

Regents will vote on every Fellowship candidate.

Be familiar with the USA Section website and its contents: www.usa-icd.org.

Appoint the Deputy Regent(s) for the chapters of their District. Deputy Regents are appointed annually, their term to begin at 12:01 a.m. January 1st of the year following the Fall Convocation. Deputy Regents are appointed for one year but may serve indefinitely at the pleasure of the Regent. Since many Deputy Regents will move up to Vice Regent and eventually Regent, some consideration should be given to the age of the Deputy Regent. When a Deputy Regent concludes his term of office, it should be acknowledged by the Regent. On request, the Section Office can provide a certificate of appreciation for the Regent to present.

Provide the Registrar with his/her recommendations for the new District Regent and Vice Regent at least sixty (60) days prior to his/her last Fall BOR meeting, when the Regent and Vice Regent elections will take place.

Submit electronic reports to the Registrar forty-five (45) days prior to a BOR meeting.

Such reports will identify activities that occurred in their Districts since the last meeting of the BOR. Send (preferably digital) copies of any District newsletters to the rest of the Board and the officers. Digital copies of the newsletters should be emailed to the Section Office for posting on the ICD website.

The Regent should convey to the FellowsElect the honor of being selected for Fellowship, the history and goals of the ICD, their responsibility as Fellows to promote the core values of the Section (Integrity, Leadership, Service), and encourage them to “Share the Honor” by inviting worthy colleagues to Fellowship. The Section Office will provide contact information on request. (Updates are entered frequently, so always obtain a fresh list when contacting Fellows in your District.)

Regents, with other District officials, should consider a variety of activities and events for Fellows in their Districts/ chapters.

Partner with the Vice Regent, Deputy Regent, Counselors, and Editors to promote the ICD in your state(s)/chapter(s).

Promote the Fellowship nomination process within your District. Partner with the Deputy Regent and Counselors to identify and nominate Fellowship candidates.

Develop relationships with leaders in state associations, dental schools, and alumni organizations to better identify established and emerging leaders to honor with ICD Fellowship.

Become familiar with and promote ICD projects (Peace Corps, Fisher House, etc.)

Initiate special ICD projects in your District/Chapter(s). Consider projects with a leadership or service theme or ones which foster international collegiality.

Attend local, state, and District dental meetings to increase the visibility of the ICD. Attend any annual ICD meeting in your constituent or component chapter. Consider conducting District meetings.

Monitor the business activities of the District. For multi-state Districts, maintain constant contact with constituent/state ICD personnel.

Choose District officers who will promote the ICD values and be timely in their designated activities to assist you in your position as Regent.

Attend the Fellowship Orientation Program (FOP), Convocation, and Dinner Dance at the USA Section ICD annual national meeting.

ICD strongly encourages all Regents to participate in at least one humanitarian mission or seminar during the four-year term to support our vision, core values and motto.

5

Meetings The Board of Regents usually meets twice a year. One meeting is in the spring, the other in the fall usually immediately prior to the ADA meeting. Special meetings may be called by the President or the Registrar, or by a written request to the Registrar signed by at least five Board members. There is a written notice at least ten days prior to any meeting of the Board of Regents.

A Regent may call an executive session of the Board of Regents with the concurrence of the President and the majority of the Board of Regents.

Regents will attend the two Board meetings, the Fellowship Orientation Program (FOP), the Convocation rehearsal, and the Convocation. The Regent is encouraged to attend the annual Dinner Dance.

In multi-state Districts, a Regent should try to visit each state every three years. This meeting usually is the state’s annual meeting. The ICD Section will reimburse the Regent by voucher for coach air travel or the current IRS mileage allowance and lodging required for the visit (usually one night).

In single state Districts, the Regent is reimbursed for one visit a year in his state.

The Regent may request a visitation to a meeting in his District by the President, Registrar or other officer. It is not always possible to grant every request for a visitation. (See “How to Host an ICD President/Officer” in this manual.)

Vice Regents are welcome at USA Section Board meetings, but no reimbursement from the Section will be made. Some Districts may provide funding for the Vice Regent.

Recommendations for improving each Constituent/State or Component Chapter in the District: KY needs to start over with intensive help from Regent and Vice Regent in identifying likely candidates from the ranks of local constituent societies, faculty and Fellows of PFA and ACD. Also, granting scholarship to promote ICD’s brand at the student level.

Do any chapters in your district actively participate in White Coat Ceremonies? If so, please list the school and a description of how you participate:  KY in progress  Missouri (MO) Fellows do not yet provide monetary awards at ATSU Dental School. However, a $1000 scholarship in the fall and a $500 Humanitarian Award and a $500 Leadership Award in the spring are given at UMKC.  TN gives two $1000 awards to two students: one each at UT and Meharry.  WV Fellows purchase the White Coats ($100) and place a personal welcoming note in their pocket. I think this is a great idea that should be widely adopted.

International College of Dentists USA Section Editor of District, State or Chapter Tips for the First-Time Newsletter Editor:    



 



 





You CAN do this. If you have ever written a paper in college, or even a letter to a friend, this is what you are doing. You are letting others know what has happened.

Find out from your Regent what your budget is. If no budget exists then help establish one in communication with your District (component) officers.

Go to an event. Jot down the date, location, the key-note speaker’s name, and/or any other bits of information that are interesting to you. (If it is interesting to you it will probably be interesting to others.)

Once you are home, immediately WRITE ABOUT THE EVENT. Save it in a safe place (on a file within your computer, for example). Remember to keep this simple! Just write your thoughts as if you were telling any friend about the event.

Take a camera, and take a picture or two. If you don’t feel comfortable behind a camera, look around at the people that have a camera and are taking pictures at the event. Ask them to send you a copy of a picture of “this or that”. Note: As you become more comfortable, you may ask the “camera person” to take a specific “shot” (for example, of a Regent giving a plaque to a colleague).

At the end of the year your newsletter is already developed. You have most, if not all, of the events written about. Amazing!

You may want to look at examples of District newsletters for ideas. The newsletters are posted on our ICD USA Section website home page (www.usa-icd.org) Click on a District. Newsletters are posted on the District pages.

You might check with your District or Chapter leaders about “upcoming events” and make a list (with dates and locations, if available) to add to the newsletter. If you are really expansive go to the USA Section of the ICD website and check their “upcoming events” and add these to your list.

Also, if you wish, articles are available for reprint. Please contact Kylie Evans at the ICD USA Section Office at kylie@usa-icd.org to make a request.

There is computer software available to put together your articles and pictures in a newsletter form. If you are not comfortable with this, go to your local print shop in your community, or university and say that you want to put together a professional newsletter. Someone will be more than happy to help (for a fee, of course) and willing to collate your articles and pictures into an acceptable format to disseminate to the members.

The ICD USA Section Office can provide mailing labels and /or email addresses for Fellows in your District / State / Chapter to facilitate dissemination of your communication. Call the Section Office at (301) 2518861, (877) 806-4231 (toll free), or contact Nicki@usa-icd.org.

Above all, relax, and have some fun with this!

APPENDIX A INDUCTION CEREMONY (To be presented by the USA Section President) “Being admitted into the Fellowship of a professional organization of distinction is one of the most significant experiences of a person's vocational career. In the profession of dentistry, such reception signifies that through devoted service and high ethical standards he/she has brought honor to the profession and that, in return, is being honored by that profession. In 1928, the International College of Dentists was created for these purposes: To recognize ability, to promote ethical practice, and to honor meritorious service. This is best summed up by the USA Section’s Vision Statement: To be the leading honorary organization “Serving Others” worldwide.

In order that you may have a deeper appreciation of the honor now being conferred upon you, and in order that we all may grasp more fully the aims, objectives and purpose of the International College of Dentists, I direct your attention to Article IV of its Constitution which clearly sets forth that the organization's specific purpose is to uphold the highest standard of professional competence and personal ethics; to recognize distinguished service to the profession and the public worldwide; to foster measures for the prevention and treatment of oral disease by encouraging and supporting humanitarian projects; to contribute to the advancement of the profession of dentistry by fostering the growth and diffusion of dental knowledge worldwide; to provide a universal forum for the cultivation of cordial relations within the profession; and to assist in preserving the highest perception of the profession.

Then may I remind you of the Fellowship Pledge by which you are pledged to live in strict accordance with the ideals, rules and regulations of the College; and at all times adhere to the principles of the "Golden Rule" in your relations with your patients and colleagues.

This occasion marks the arrival of a time in your life when recognition of your work and accomplishments is due. Your qualifications have been examined by the Credentials Committee, the Board of Regents, the Counselors and Deputy Regents. You have met or exceeded all requirements for membership.

And may I admonish you that this occasion does not mark you as having fulfilled your professional achievements. As in all other associations, you will receive in proportion to what you give.

Now, by authority of the Board of Regents and the power vested in me as President of the United States of America Section of the International College of Dentists, it gives me great pleasure and distinct honor to confer upon you Fellowship in the College. I extend to you the right hand of Fellowship which is an ancient and honorable sign of friendship and thus extend to you the rights and privileges of this College, wishing you continued health and success in your professional career. Under the guidance of God we shall work together for the common purpose of alleviating human suffering.”

Regent Vote Information – Your District Candidates 1. A Candidate from your District has been sponsored, prescreened by your Deputy Regent, two letters have been submitted on the Candidate’s behalf, and the Candidate has filled in the CIF. The Deputy Regent has reviewed the completed CIF package and you have received an electronic notification that states “Deputy Regent approval, awaiting Regent vote.” a. You may have gotten this notification via your e-mail account or by logging into the usaicd.org website. If you choose to review the Candidate from your e-mail notification click on the notice and it will take you the website; or, you can go directly to the website www.usaicd.org. Log in so you can see the Candidate line above the gold bar. Click on Candidate from the Candidate drop down menu, then select your District and click “apply.” This will bring up all the candidates currently in your District and their status. b. Look for those Candidates that are ready for the Regent’s approval. Take a look at the CIF and letters as a final review before you send it off to the Section Office. Click on “Vote” and “Save.” When the Registrar sends this Candidate out for a BOR vote you will not see this Candidate again since you have already voted on this individual. c. Once a Candidate is released by the Regent from the District, the program sends an alert to the Section Office for a final review for completeness (two letters, ADA numbers, birth date, etc.).

Fellowship Orientation Program (FOP) The Dr. George D. Selfridge Fellowship Orientation Program was developed by the USA ICD Foundation and is presented by the USA Section. It was first presented at the Chicago meeting in 2000 and is funded by the USA Section.

The program was developed so that the new Fellows and their spouses and guests could have a better understanding of the honor they are about to receive. This educational program has been highly successful.

The program is presented the afternoon before the Convocation. It is about one hour in length, and is followed by a reception. The time frame is usually about 4:30 - 7:00 p.m. This time offers the opportunity to meet your FellowsElect from your District.

Spaces are reserved in the front for Regents and their spouses. Regents are introduced.

Topics covered include opening remarks, why you are a Candidate, history of the College, structure of the College, a charge to the Fellows and a welcome to Fellowship.

Following the FOP, there is a reception named in honor of Dr. Charles M. and Alice Simons who provided a generous grant to fund the audio-visual needs at the reception for several years. District numbers are placed at reception tables to help the District Officers and Fellows-Elect find and greet one another.

89

Convocation Regents should make every effort to provide helpful information to the Fellows-Elect who are to be inducted. Answer any questions they may have. In late summer, either write, email, or call to welcome them to the College. Impress on them the importance of attending the Fellowship Orientation Program. This is a good time to make sure you have the name pronunciation correct.

You will receive instructions from the Convocation Committee and give instructions to your Fellows-Elect in the robing room. It is vital to have your candidates in alphabetical order before leaving the staging room. It is a good idea to have your spouse or another person there to assist if the class is large.

Each Regent will introduce the Candidates from his/her district. You will have a script, your list of Candidates, and the chance to rehearse.

A group photo will be taken during the Convocation. Once your entire group is across the stage and has received plaques and keys, the Fellows will be posed by a professional photographer by District. The Regent will return to the stage after pictures are taken.

The photographer will also be taking individual or family photos of the robed Fellows after the convocation.

Regents and their spouses should attend the dinner banquet. You will be seated with your district.

Make sure your new Fellows are listed in your District Newsletter or in a letter to the Fellows in your District.

INTERNATIONAL COLLEGE OF DENTISTS USA SECTION SAMPLE ACTIVITIES AND PROJECTS 1) Launch of a new Website – Updated, thorough and user friendly. Candidate Information Process – New all electronic process through the website. We will be developing a manual to go with the process steps. Very Successful.

2) Applied Strategic Planning. With a focused approach, our initiatives are moving along smartly and we are well ahead of where our accomplishments would be without such planning. So successful is this initiative that we updated it in January 2016.

3) Volunteer Symposiums – A key element in the Leadership component of our core values. This is an initiative to coordinate the efforts of ICD Fellows that currently provide or wish to participate in international volunteer outreach programs. The intent of the committee is to foster collaboration and provide links with organizations and university programs that promote international cooperation. The Section works closely with the American Dental Association and financially supports their ADA Humanitarian Opportunities Website. Several regional symposiums on volunteerism are held for the profession throughout the United States each year and the seminars have met with resounding success.

4) Peace Corps Project. The Peace Corps receives approximately 6,000 applicants a year from throughout the United States. Some of the applicants have their own dentist; others do not. Most of those accepted to serve as Peace Corps Volunteers will be in locations where there is no access to dental care. Fellows provide dental examinations and radiographs at no cost to the Peace Corps volunteer, which also frees Peace Corps funds for other uses. a) Background – In a 2006 Board of Regents Meeting it was determined that Fellows in the ICD will assist Peace Corps applicants by offering free clinical examinations and X-rays in conjunction with their Peace Corps application. b) Good to Community – Those accepted into the Peace Corps serve as volunteers in locations where there is no access to dental care. For this reason there is a standard of dental wellbeing that must be met before an applicant is accepted for Peace Corps service. It was felt that both the Peace Corps and the ICD have global missions with involvement in many countries, hence the initial connection. c) Participants – This Peace Corps dental exam effort allows Fellows of the ICD to help the Peace Corps mission, on a voluntary basis, as well as participate in one of our many worthy projects. Currently we have Fellows signed up to give exams in all 50 states. d) Current initiatives – Provided a Peace Corps update in our newsletter along with a brief explanation of our complimentary services the ICD Fellows to provide the applicants. e) Point of Contact – Ms. Kylie Evans, kylie@usa-icd.org 5) The International Student Experience (ISE) has enjoyed considerable success and expansion within the USA over the last several years. The objective of the ISE is to prepare dental students for future leadership in the global community by sharing cultural and professional experiences with students throughout the world. A most informative brochure and manual can be downloaded from the USA Section web site at www.usa-icd.org. The future success and expansion of this excellent program will be dependent on future funding.

100

6) The Global Health Student Associations of the USA Section have been initiated at the University of Georgia, the University of Maryland, the University of North Carolina, Harvard School of Medicine, and the University of Texas Dental Schools. They offer an excellent mechanism for both undergraduate and graduate students to develop their interests in oral health, humanitarian opportunities, and cultural enrichment worldwide. These organizations have significant potential for future growth and development. A protocol and brochure is available for the GHSAs.

DISTINGUISHED DEPUTY REGENT AWARD The Distinguished Deputy Regent Award is sponsored and presented annually by the ICD USA Section Foundation to recognize that individual who has demonstrated, and has performed, uniquely outstanding service in his/her constituent. In 2019, the Distinguished Deputy Regent was Dr. W. Brian Powley from Paradise Valley, AZ. The format will be the same as we have used in the past. The form must be filled out and the Regent’s District must be entered above the signature. A typed narrative should be included with the form. This descriptive summary is the best way to express your quantitative evaluation of the twelve elements on the enclosed form.

In order to avoid confusion, your submission must be for a current Deputy Regent who was active in 2019. You may have one who is brand new and one who has served for years. Select your best Deputy Regent and write him/her up. If you feel the need to write up two, do it, but the Committee would prefer to deal with just seventeen evaluations.

Submit your evaluations no later than Wednesday, April 1, 2020. This deadline is critical in order that the nominations may be processed for final selection and subsequent presentation at the Deputy Regent’s Meeting held Annual Fall Meeting. Submit your evaluations to Kylie Evans at kylie@usa-icd.org.

Please note: The Distinguished Deputy Regent Award recipient will be presented with a check for $1,000 to be used for the following continuing education event. The award will not have carry-over privileges and must be utilized at the next continuing education event. It is the goal of the ICD USA Section Foundation that this award will stimulate activities at the Section’s grass root level.

Item 8. Sample Letters from Regent to Deputy Regents – Goals RE: Recruitment

Dates to be sent: November 15th to January 1st Type 1 – Recruitment Goals were met.

Dear Mike, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your efforts in recruiting the recent class of new Fellows from our District. You are the “boots on the ground” that make it possible for our College to continue to grow. You should also be proud that you are a part of this memorable experience in the professional lives of our outstanding colleagues. We are grateful that you helped the College meet its goals for (state or region) this past year.

We have set a goal of (number) candidates from (state or region) for next year. If we start now, it should be possible to meet this goal by the May 15th deadline.

The Membership and Recruitment Manual provides the resources needed to help in this process. A key component of our efforts involves your Counselors. Please be sure they are in place to make this goal easier to achieve. Their involvement makes your task easier and allows them to become more involved in the ICD and that increases their perception of “Value of Fellowship.”

Please let me know if I can help in any way.

Thank you again for your support of the ICD. In Fellowship,

Dr. Dental Dean University of the State 123 Road Street City, State zip Re: International College of Dentists Student Leadership and Humanitarian Awards Dear Dr. Dean: The International College of Dentists USA Section (ICD) has long recognized the demonstration of our core values of Integrity, Leadership and Service by dental professionals. For years we emphasized Leadership on many fronts and one of those areas of recognition is our ICD Student Leadership Award.

We are also proud to offer a second and distinct award, the Student Humanitarian Award. The student selected to receive this award should be an outstanding example of altruistic leadership in promoting and serving humanitarian projects. The awards will consist of an attractive plaque for each recipient.

Enclosed are the criteria we would suggest for identifying the two student recipients. I am also enclosing forms to be returned to me at least six (6) weeks prior to the award ceremony indicating the student recipient name, the date of the award presentation, and the name and address of the person to whom the award plaque should be sent. Also, please send with the two forms a half page or less biography on each recipient.

Lastly, I would also encourage that an ICD Fellow present the awards. If we can help identify such a person, we would be happy to do so. A paragraph of presentation will accompany the award.

Please forward this information to the personnel in your school who manage the student awards.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best personal regards,
