Not law but interesting - Justice Boehm screens USOC applicants
From an AP story today, dateline Denver:
More than 100 people applied for four independent spots on the U.S. Olympic Committee's new board of directors by Friday's deadline. The directors will join the three American International Olympic Committee members and four others nominated by athletes and sports organizations as part of the board formed last year after months of turmoil clouded the USOC's future.The independent candidates, who applied online over the past three weeks, have a wide range of backgrounds -- including finance, marketing, public relations and athletics.
"There are people from virtually any description you might want to come up with," said Indiana Supreme Court Justice Theodore R. Boehm, who heads the four-person nominating committee. "Many of them have been distinguished in various fields, different backgrounds, different skills. We think we're going to be able to assemble a board that meets all the criteria we have, which obviously are credibility, talent, experience, diversity."
