I agree 100%. Everyone should have a voice in how this program is run, not just the people with the most experience and the greatest insight on how to run a program. After all, everyone has an opinion.

If I had to choose a group to determine programmatic direction, I would certainly select a balanced group of people who have lots of experience, and people who do not -- to ensure everyone gets the chance to put their stink on things. Every opinion carries equal weight. Right?
