Good question. I went to their website (https://www.washacad.org/) and it seems that one needs to be nominated by another member in good standing to be eligible for membership which might lead to a form of nepotism.

As for the Committee itself there are nine people listed and I ran those names against the 2021/2022 list of WSAS members provided on the website and of the 9 Committee members only 2 are listed as WSAS members unless I missed something.
