TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Please note that campaigning for STC elections is now considered permissible.
Binion Amerson distributed this message to Region 5 leaders on 2/14/96:
* Candidate Campaigning. STC President Saul Carliner--in consultation
with JoAnn Hackos (1995-96 Nominating Committee Manager), Liz Babcock
(1996-97 Nominating Committee Manager), Jody Heiken, Donna Sakson, and Bill
Stolgitis--has ruled that active campaigning is permissible by the
candidates.
You are correct to note that STC election discussions could
quickly overrun techwr-l if we simply open it up to active debate. When
someone asks a question concerning the election, however, we should not
be afraid to voice an opinion.
