 It&amp;#39;s a tough one. 20 candidates. 3 of them standing for reelection having already served a term. 17 newcomers. Ages ranging over at least half a century. Every one of them has passed the first and only test</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>RE: RCVS elections</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/246901?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 23 Mar 2025 20:11:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:a437a8c2-94e8-4e7b-997b-70be1ebdf92f</guid><dc:creator>Clive Ansell</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I haven&amp;#39;t studied it in detail yet, but so far my shortlist is very short indeed, just one, and that is someone I know.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t start with 20 and use various criteria to exclude them as I read about them, I start with Zero and add them if they tick the boxes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: RCVS elections</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/246899?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 23 Mar 2025 15:53:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:b5b331cb-6e40-4097-a42f-0bd0f35eec46</guid><dc:creator>Ben Walker</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote userid="4103" url="~/f/non-clinical-questions/31156/rcvs-elections/246897#246897"]Me too, I&amp;#39;ve read their profile and&amp;nbsp;&lt;span&gt;candidate statement and I&amp;#39;ve narrowed it down to 3 possibly 4&lt;/span&gt;[/quote]

&lt;p&gt;Certainly not a list this long - think that probably says quite a lot about the RCVS proposal for change. Spoilt for choice, it&amp;#39;s given me a new problem - information overload.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: RCVS elections</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/246859?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 21 Mar 2025 01:37:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:75340513-b8a6-4817-9676-eeaf2511276d</guid><dc:creator>Michael Woodhouse</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote userid="28687" url="~/f/non-clinical-questions/31156/rcvs-elections"] there&amp;#39;s at least a dozen on that list who would do a sterling job[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;Really?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think I&amp;#39;m left with 3 or possibly 4 I could vote for. Happy to run you through my exclusion criteria, if you like. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
