  • Legal Impediments to Service: Women in the Military and the Rule of Law
    08__MURNANE.DOC 6/18/2007 3:03 PM LEGAL IMPEDIMENTS TO SERVICE: WOMEN IN THE MILITARY AND THE RULE OF LAW LINDA STRITE MURNANE* PREAMBLE Since our nation’s birth, women have been engaged in the national defense in various ways. This article will examine the legal impediments to service by women in the United States military. This brings to light an interesting assessment of the meaning of the term “Rule of Law,” as the legal exclusions barring women from service, establishing barriers to equality and creating a type of legal glass ceiling to preclude promotion, all fell within the then-existing Rule of Law in the United States. Finally, this article looks at the remaining barriers to women in the military and reasons to open all fields and all opportunities to women in today’s military. I. THE CONCEPT OF THE RULE OF LAW Albert Venn Dicey, in “Law of the Constitution,” identified three principles which establish the Rule of Law: (1) the absolute supremacy or predominance of regular law as opposed to the influence of arbitrary power; (2) equality before the law or the equal subjection of all classes to the ordinary law of the land administered by the ordinary courts; and (3) the law of the constitution is a consequence of the rights of individuals as defined and enforced by the courts.1 This concept of the Rule of Law has existed since the beginning of the nation, most famously reflected in the writings of John Adams in drafting the * Colonel, USAF, Ret. The author acknowledges with gratitude the research assistance of Vega Iodice, intern at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia and lawyer apprentice at the Iodice Law Firm in Naples, Italy, in the preparation of this article.

    v52n2_final.qxd 02/25/2003 5:12 PM Page 45 ISSN 0028-9485 March 2003 Vol. LII No. 2 www.ala.org/nif The best-selling Harry Potter series of children’s books by J.K. Rowling tops the list of books most challenged in 2002, according to the American Library Association’s (ALA) Office for Intellectual Freedom. The Potter series drew complaints from parents and others concerned about the books’ focus on wizardry and magic. The ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom received a total of 515 reports of challenges last year, a fifteen percent increase since 2001. A challenge is defined as a formal, written complaint, filed with a library or school, requesting that materials be removed because of content or appropriateness. The majority of challenges are reported by public libraries, schools and school libraries. According to Judith F. Krug, director of the Office for Harry Potter Intellectual Freedom, the number of challenges reflects only incidents reported, and for each challenge reported, four or five remain unreported. The “Ten Most Challenged Books of 2002” reflect a wide variety of themes. The is most books, in order of most frequently challenged are: G Harry Potter series, by J. K. Rowling, for its focus on wizardry and magic. challenged G Alice series, by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor, for being sexually explicit, using offensive language and being unsuited to age group. fourth year G The Chocolate War, by Robert Cormier (the “Most Challenged” book of 1998), for using offensive language and being unsuited to age group.

  • Chief Executive Officer Search
    CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER SEARCH 1 Canal Street • PO Box 335 • Seneca Falls, NY 13148 • womenofthehall.org • (315) 568-8060 T HE S EA RC H The Board of Directors of the National Women’s Hall of Fame invites applications and nominations of highly experienced, energetic, and creative candidates for the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Candidates should be attracted to the opportunity to provide highly transformative leadership for the nation’s premier institution honoring exceptional American women who embody the National Women’s Hall of Fame mission of “Showcasing great women . Inspiring all”. The National Women’s Hall of Fame (NWHF/the Hall) is expanding in every way – in size, in reach, in influence. To better accommodate these ambitions, the NWHF rehabilitated the historic 1844 Seneca Knitting Mill located on the Seneca-Cayuga branch of the Erie Canal in Seneca Falls, NY, and moved into it in 2020. This extraordinary achievement was completed over nine years with 10 million dollars of funding. The NWHF is eager to embrace the opportunities enabled by this new, expansive space, including honoring the importance and sense of “place” that Seneca Falls and the Erie Canal system have played in the history of the economic, social, and human rights movements of the United States of America. Following this historic move, in this historic year celebrating the centennial of women’s suffrage, the National Women’s Hall of Fame now seeks a talented, proven leader dedicated to expanding the Hall’s national footprint, advancing its fundraising capacity, strengthening its organizational structure, and planning and implementing an ambitious agenda of new programs and exhibits.
