I completely agree. No one is qualified to consult on a topic that they have never "lived" personally. Obviously, those are not the people I'm talking about. And I'm confident that the AI situation described earlier in the Michigan UP was not the GLO's first choice for filling those vacant advisor positions. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

True again. I'm just playing the odds here. Everybody's life goes through cycles where they have lots of time to give, and then later they are consumed by career and family commitments. Hopefully during those periods when they are focused on other parts of their lives, the GLO bond will be tightly formed so they are comfortable getting reinvolved when they have more available time. My point is that I think the odds of someone staying involved are greater for someone who went through the trouble to seek out sisterhood than for someone to whom it was given as a courtesy.
