The community aspect of Pacifica is a very important part of the experience. I feel that Linda missed a huge part of the bonding experience with our group by missing out on the archetype presentation. I know that she was very disappointed by not being able to participate and bond with the group and know that many people noted and missed her presence there - including me. As long as her presence does not add extra work for the instructors or cost Pacifica extra money, and she is willing to take the time to be there, I think she should be allowed to attend. Where I teach, students who have taken a class before can volunteer to be a Teaching Assistant to help with any mundane tasks that need to be done...perhaps this might give an additional incentive to allow her into the class?
