I am perplexed and unhappy with the Dec. 29 Marianne Schnall op-ed (“Why we need to embolden women and girls to keep running for leadership“) because it omitted mention of Olympia Snowe and her Women’s Leadership Institute. If the author does not know about this institute, she should, and you, as editor, should have insisted that a photo of Sen. Snowe be attached to the op-ed along with the other photos.
I hope that the newspaper makes amends by carrying an article about the Women’s Institute as soon as possible.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
By joining the conversation, you are agreeing to our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is found on our FAQs.
