I've never thought of us "competing" with one another, and I've always
thought people have tried to contribute ideas where the could about the
various other departments they were not "in"  but one person would as a
coordinator would have be an "expert" in all the various fields, and even
then people would naturally contribute in areas they would have interest
in..which is what I think we already are now.
