An associate of mine and I were discussing things- with all the secrecy- are the names of the 9 person nominating committee public information? A quick search on the SOA site did not prove fruitful.

I have no idea if this is current

additional: i go to this page all the time to check on committees (in particular, the currently puny general insurance commitee.... going to look... yup, still puny)
http://soa.org/Leadership/Committees/committees.aspx

To navigate to that page other than direct link, in the menu all the way over to the right is the heading "Leadership". All the governance, committees, etc stuff is over there

Will the current candidates for president-elect be 'chatting' with the AO? If so, I suggest we ask them their thoughts on the NC process and the de facto gag order on one's own opinions.

I'm sure they were told not to participate here. And they won't.

Interesting. I see that there's an FCAS on that committee. What is up with that?
