Goals for the position and the contribution the candidate believes she can personally make if elected or appointed

I have enjoyed working on the IFUW Resolutions Committee. I am familiar with the work of the committee and I am prepared to do the work required.

In 2005 - 06 the CFUW Education Committee of which I was chair prepared and presented a resolution on English/ French as a Second Language to the CFUW Annual General Meeting. This resolution was accepted. The CFUW resolutions process allows for extensive consultation with our clubs. This consultation process has developed over the past few years and now is carried out mainly by email. I hope that in IFUW we will see that the increasing use of email communication will encourage more input from NFAs to the resolutions process
