Re: Emeritus Judges

[Judy Keisling <keisling@swbell.net>]

Here is how to make a nomination for an emeritus judge. This information can
also be found on page 9 of the Handbook for Judges and Show Officials, Seventh
Edition.

Judy Keisling

Appointments of Emeritus Judges are made by the Board
of Directors at the annual 
Fall Board Meeting in November from those
nominated during the year. A 
nomination may be made by an RVP or by another
AIS member. The individual making 
the nomination may nominate a judge from
within their region or from another 
region.
B B B B B  To make a nomination,
the individual making the nomination must write a 
letter that clearly states
as completely as possible the nomineebs record of 
judging and other service
to the AIS and obtain four letters of support for the 
nomination from four
fully accredited judges, at least two of whom must be from 
outside the
nomineebs region.
B B B B B  Once the nominator has obtained the supporting
statements, the letter of 
nomination and the supporting statements are to be
sent to the AIS Chairman of 
Judges who then reviews the documents for
completeness and recommends valid 
candidates (those who have met the
criterion of outstanding service) to the 
Board of Directors for
consideration. Approval by three-fourths (75%) of the 
Directors present and
voting is required for appointment.

Each year I am reminded that our society has
been growing older. Many of the
udges in AIS have been judges for more than
ten years. Many have also worked
ery hard for the organization in many
capacities, at the regional level and or
he sectional level and a few on the
AIS board. Whatever, I am certain there
are
any, whose service has gone beyond
the expected conscientious performance as
udge. I also believe there are
several judges whose service at the national
evel has gone without additional
recognition. Look around you and reflect on
he judges you know. Many of us
forget that it is we who nominate these special
udges for Emeritus Judges. I
am certain there are judges who are deserving of
his status, but no one has
bothered to send a recommendation for the board to
onsider. I expect to
nominate at least one. But I expect there are several
thers who should be so
recognized. There have been a number of gaps in recent
ears where few or no
recommendations have gone!
to the board. Considering the demographics of our
society and how involved
any individuals have been through the years, one
would expect a much larger
ohort of our judges to be Emeritus. Note Emeritus
does not means they stop
udging, and there is no limit to how many deserving
judges can be made
meritus. Personlly I think AIS has some catch up to do.
