     I just tried to download a copy from the specific Federal Register 
     proposal dated February 8, 1996, but the UMASS site I was retrieving 
     from was busy. I was interested in the "total" proposed changes. 
     However, I would like to address the experience level, as noted by 
     Dave. I for one believe that even 1 year's experience to head any type 
     of a program is insufficient. One year "might" be adequate to head a 
     program that is operating under normal conditions, but what happens 
     when there are abnormal conditions? What is the individual's 
     capability to think, assess and act under conditions of stress? There 
     is a significant difference between normal and abnormal. I do not mean 
     to imply that an individual who has many years of experience can't 
     "screw up" or "fall apart" when things go awry. However, the 
     individual is more apt to respond with some clarity due to seasoning 
     in the job. One year? I don't think so.
