How many women have applied to the board and have been rejected? Maybe a study should be done FIRST to determine if the "problem" exists.<br><br>I know of at least one who was nominated at least twice but not elected either time. She was definitely a highly qualified candidate and was and remains Secretary General of the Caribbean Telecommunications union.<br><br>I know of at least one other who was rejected by the nominating committee despite being a highly qualified candidate with a history of service to the ARIN community.<br><br>So yes, a problem exists.<br><br>Owen<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>ARIN-Consult<br>You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Consult Mailing<br>List (ARIN-consult@arin.net).<br>Unsubscribe or manage your mailing list subscription at:<br> <a href="http://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-consult" target="_new">http://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-consult</a> Please contact the ARIN Member Services<br>Help Desk at info@arin.net if you experience any issues.<br>
