Again, I believe most organizations are looking at the De Pauw situation and carefully considering how to handle similar situations in the future, realizing that every situation is going to be different and needs to be handled that way. I don't think another set of unanimous agreements from NPC are going to help.

I hope that GLO members do act as you suggest and I hope that the national officers respond likewise. I think that internal policies might be the ones most likely to acted upon. I still think, though, that since the PR from other organizations carries over, that NPC guidelines would help. (I think clear cut rules would have helped in the DePauw situation.)
Nothing my organization did would have prevented the DePauw situation, and yet, it may influence PNM attitudes about pledging any GLO. We'd like to think that groups didn't need rules to make them treat people right, but experience may teach us something else.
