Gov. Gray Davis appointed a history professor and
a nurse as the newest public members of the State Bar Board of
Governors last month.
Janet M. Green, 67, of Riverside, is the director
of health services and a professor of business administration,
marketing and management at San Bernardino Valley College.
She was appointed by Chief Justice Ronald George
to serve as a public member of the California Judicial Council's
Jury Instruction Task Force and was appointed by the San Bernardino
County chief probation officer to serve on the county's Youth
Justice Center Community Action Council.
Green also works at the Corona Norco Drug
Rehabilitation Center.
Dr. John N. Snetsinger, 59, of San Luis Obispo,
is the director of international education and programs as well as
head of the London study program at Cal Poly University in San Luis
Obispo. He has been a history professor for 30 years.
Snetsinger also serves on the legislative
committee of the California Faculty Association. He has chaired
several university, college and department committees and was the
recipient of Cal Poly's Distinguished Teacher Award in 1992.
Both new board members' terms expire Sept. 1,
2002.
Their appointment leaves two open seats for
public members on the 23-member board. There are six seats for members
of the public.
Green replaces Los Angeles businessman John
Morris, and Snetsinger fills the position previously held by Jo Ellen
Allen, public affairs director for Southern California Edison. Both
left the board three years ago. |
