I disagree with this. While it may be a good recommendation I don't think it should be forced. In general the most qualified person for the job will get it where qualification is determined by the voters in the club. If it is true that the most qualified people for each position are all seniors then it would be best to have all seniors. There are enough aspiring members of the club to continue to fill the spots as they are vacated each year. A complete turnover in leadership each year is not a bad thing. One difference between a football team and the UUG is that once a senior has graduated they would leave a football team. When a senior in UUG has graduated it is not always the case that they leave the list. Our user group is a community not strictly revolving around school terms. -- Michael Golden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
