Discussion is Talk with a Purpose

The League of Women Voters uses group discussion to help in selection of program, in development of membership thinking and agreement on which to base League action; and in evaluation of techniques and procedures in the League in program, Voters Service, finance and all other phases of League work. What is the role of the member in group discussion? You will be a real Leaguer if you:

L- listen to comments of others

E- evaluate ideas objectively

A - ask questions if you don't understand a point

G - guide group progress by keeping on the subject

U - use materials supplied in advance by the League

E - enter into the discussion freely

R- respect other's viewpoints
