Notice Board

It's Chairman .
Regardless of Sex

The 20th Convention of the National
Association of Parliamentarians in San
Francisco passed the following resolution:
"Whereas, Parliamentary Law has a lang-
uage all its own; and Whereas, In olden
times the one ‘presiding was the only
person provided with a chair, while others
sat on benches, hence he was called the
Chairman; and

Whereas, No parliamentary law author-
ity or dictionary recognizes the word
Chairperson; and

Whereas, Since time immemorial the
term Mister Chairman or Madam Chairman
has always been employed to differentiate
between sexes; and

Whereas, Further effort toward sex
differentiation is redundant and contrived;
now therefore be is resolved

That organizations and parliamentar-
ians of the National Association of
Parliamentarians must use the term
Chairman instead of "Chairperson" and
be it resolved

That all N.A.P. members should
habitually stress the principle that the
word Chairman belongs to the title of the
office the same as the title-of President
or Secretary."

To quote one of our more well known.
female members, Audrey Schatz (who is
Chairman of the Member Services Committee).
"It's about time!"
