I have not seen it in NCUC or NCSG before of former EC members going for a lower position after serving as Chair.
For historical accuracy: In NCSG several former chairs have served in NCSG EC as well as in the Council (indeed some do right now, Robin Gross in the EC and Stephanie Perrin in the Council unless I'm mistaken). In NCUC at least David Cake was Chair earlier and AP representative later and Rafik Dammak was NCUC's policy committee representative after being NCUC Chair.
let newer members run
Absolutely agreed here, everybody willing should run. But now we're only nominating candidates, election comes later. And it is definitely good governance and good for democracy to have several candidates for voters to choose from. Regards, -- Tapani Tarvainen
