'Secret1 appointments to planning panel To the editor ' o We are Indignant that !hc two appointments to the Sanibel Planning Commission were made without public discussion and wiiha secret ballot on January 2. 1991. That scorns to us a disregard for the Sunshine Law and a (Kmlnlshmcnt ol the importance of the Planning Commission, " , '"' We expected a discussion 'at this public inccliiig on two points: the (rack record of the Incumbents and the qualifications of all the candidates. This was not done. We have always prided ourselves that Santbei, for a number of reasons, Is about as true a democracy as exists in Southwest Florida. This then would seem tamandate a number of conditions- First, that the voice of the electorate at last November's election be taken under consideration. Had this been done Roz Wegryii would haye been appointed. Second.

lhat serious consideration be given lo gender heterogeneity in appointments to committees and commissions. To out knowledge this has not been a factor. We havcj.wrilten a letter to the City Council protesting their action on January 2 and requesting that futxire appointments to committees, boards, and commissions be inade.aftiP carcful discussion and open voting at public meetings. We applaud the willingness of citizens, to serve csi; committees, boards and commissions and believe their work has been invaluable te the City. It is our hope that Sanibei's elected and appointed* officials will in thc-future truly reflect the composition of our community. ' =s". •• ',]

' A French and Latin teacher for 31 years, Sutherland has put to good use her language skills for two-fold reasons., ' ''Since sciences all have a vocabulary rooted fn Latin'and Greek, there was a natural progression from my earlier interests In language," she said. "And in oixier to travel independently, it was necessary lo acquire basic skills in x'artous languages." Motivated by cu-! " rloslty about the work!, and her constanCquest for challenges. Sutherland and has sought the far corners of the globe. l p '•'

...She now li^cs in Shell Point:Village but ° spends at least four days on the Island. The ~ Inveterate traveler thai she Is. she'll spend the time from mid-April until the fall when she returns louring Europe, with a base in France. Giving praise not only to the volunteer prugram at the conservation center, but also to the "Ding" Darling Wildlife Refuge volunteer program, field trips sponsored by the Audubon Society and to.the educated and accomplished people who share theirs . knowledge, Sutherland continues to fill her ' life of exploration.

The Mom's program takes over where the enlfcpreneurship project left off and carries the business idea into its development as an ongoirig'school-based enterprise 'Mom's Is a dropout prevention prognirnjjy teaching girls how to operate their own business and providing them with an income while they stay in school.^Kaserman said. . _ Some girls don't knowrwhat career choice they want, and the Diversified Cooperative Training program offers them an off-campus work experience opportunity. Currently. LAMP is organizing a Mentor program inviting professional women to sponsor a student by offering support, guidance and encouragement. In addition to challenging each mother academically, the program offers an on-campus:health care center. ,. "We are not happy U) see them (tcerisj pregnant but they are here'and we want them and their babies healthy and want them to be good parents," DeRose said. There are a lot of girls who are'working because program volunteers and employees took time out to drive the students to an.interview, ; Kasennan said. ^ ' _.
