Logistics Education Foundation
In recognition of the need for support to the education and
training of logisticians, in 1974 SOLE founded the Logistics Education Foundation (LEF).
This non-profit foundation, which derives its authority from SOLE, has as its purpose the
collection of funds for, and the providing of financial support to the educational
activities and programs of the Society. This includes, but is not limited to: providing
the funding for SOLE's annual scholarship and doctoral dissertation awards programs;
grants; publication of technical/educational material (e.g., monographs); and other
financial assistance to individuals and organizations furthering logistics education, as
determined by the LEF's Board of Trustees. No action may be undertaken by the LEF that is
not in consonance with and in support of the objectives of the Society. As a SOLE member,
you are automatically a member of the LEF. Programs and initiatives undertaken by the LEF in support
of SOLE’s educational agenda include:
The operation of the LEF is administered by a Board of
Governors (BOG) and a Board of Trustees (BOT). The Board of Governors includes the elected
officers and directors of the LEF; an Academic Advisor (serving ex-officio); and
SOLE’s Vice Presidents, Education, and Professional and Technical Development (both
serving ex-officio). The Board of Trustees provides the policy and governance for the
organization, and includes all members of SOLE’s Board of Directors, and all members
of the LEF BOG. FY 2004 LEF Board of Governors President Donald P. Hopkins Vice President, Operations Kenneth W.
