The trick is not to be representative of all aspects but to contain  
people who are from a broad sprectrum of folk. It is impossible to  
find a faculty single view. It is feasible to have people who  
understand the general pressures thast faculty live under. Its rather  
hard for an administrator to understand those pressures unless (like  
in rare cases ) they were one for long enouugh to experience them.  
There are highs and lows that come with that position and boy they  
were not obvious to me when I switched over from industry 21 years  
ago. I cannot describe them easily but I have found almost all my  
fellow faculty know exactly what I mean.
