I fear I may also be a "dude," so I've got three strikes against me. :-) Ms. Rowe certainly didn't intend it, but this comes across as terribly elitist and uninviting to others not of her profession. And we are talking here about making the ARSC a more inviting institution, are we not? As Dr Biel pointed out, ARSC covers a broad base of membership. Let's all strive to keep it that way.
