I see that PRSM has a Board of Directors, including the persons mentioned above. Were they not elected by the membership, and if so do they not periodically face re-election? If they are so bad, it would seem likely that the membership would vote them out. I realize the situation may exist where much of the membership is not active at the museum and thus has no first-hand knowledge of the situation, and "knows" only what they are told by the powers-that-be. I have seen this be the case elsewhere. If that's the case, it will be up to those who wish to improve the organization to inform the entire membership and bring about change. I wish them the best of luck.
