[Reading-hall-of-fame] Re: RHF elections, 2019-2020

[Judith Green]

Greeting RHF,

I agree with David.  This is also an intergenerational set of scholars.  I support David’s wondering if we might adopt a variable stance in deciding on the number who can be elected in a given year.  I agree that there will also be an ebb and flow.  How might such a decision be made.  A two year expansion to 8 or 9 sounds like a potential given the quality and the challenges we are seeking to address.

Thanks pdp

Judith

Not to imply that the rest of us were not elected from highly competitive pools...., but there were SO MANY qualified candidates.  I could easily have voted yes on at least 8-10 of those in this year's pool without compromising even an ounce of quality.

Perhaps we could suggest a two year expansion to 8 or 9, at least X (maybe 3) of which shall be from outside the US.
