Transparency is not a guarantee with Board of Governors and is necessary to elect accountable Governors.

We need more of a say, not less, in how NCA is organized and administered.

I'm against any change that would take power away from a duly elected governing body and place it in the hands of a priviledged few. Academic freedom, ethical purity, and democratic process are the cornerstones of any service organization.

No! I'm sick of every governmental voice trying to take power from the people. Now NCA?

I understand the need for a more nimble association with less burdensome use of scholars' time in LA, but it seems from the petition and discussion that this revision curtails too many of our democratic procedures. Couldn't a better revision at least give simple majority override by the LA of any executive and administrative decisions? Sorry I am not informed about the specific changes. Until I know more or feel the democratic process if vouchsafed, I stand opposed to the changes.

NCA should be governed by its members, not by employees hired to support the efforts of its members.
