Barbara, You did indeed and I had forgotten, for which I apologize. But it seems to me there is a big difference between "put your name in, you probably won't get the position, but you will learn things that might help the next time" and "apply for this on the assumption that you might get it". I know that, this time, I tried to convince one person I considered qualified to run who basically told me that the experience when they applied for a position in a different year had been sufficiently time-consuming and stressful that they were not likely to ever apply for such a position again. It was not the first time I've been told very similar things. There is probably nothing that can be done to prevent that kind of reaction, but it may be a tradeoff to be thought about for the future. Any thoughts on whether it would be helpful to start collecting comments on candidates, new appointees, and/or continuing incumbents now with the understanding that no one would look at them before the 2021-2022 Nomcom was seated? best, john
