Yes, as I said in the last post, it is probably unavoidable. I may be able to discuss, in very general terms, certain problems which have come up on some of the Assemblies and District Teaching Committees I have served on (and there have been some doozies!). However, if I get too specific, I am, with Assembly business, most likely violating confidentiality rules and with DTCs, engaging in gossip. In any event, even if sociological research was possible on this subject, it would be, at best, either a case study or a survey research project consisting of very general questions. Mark A.
