Composition

°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±app

The Committee on Governance was established in 1971, with Ronald A. Dubberly serving as coordinator. The committee originated Cognotes, the daily conference newsletter, in Chicago in 1972. A final product of the first committee was a comprehensive report in 1973, which evaluated NMRT objectives and operations. This final item has served as the basis for the committee's existence ever since. The Governance Committee works on the Committee Charge and completes tasks assigned to it by the NMRT President.
