It's not like it's a voting position. So you would be fine with someone being NomCom chair for 3 or 4 years in a row? Should we just find someone good at it and make them permanent NomCom Chair? I think having fresh eyes, having the Chair and previous Chair be different people, etc., is a good thing. I've been a NomCom Chair and have been a voting member multiple times. In my opinion, the Chair has a lot of subtle influence. Maybe prohibiting anyone from serving in that position twice is too harsh but it should be a good long while before they could be Chair again, like maybe 10 years.
