She believed that mastering parliamentary procedure was not just about enforcing strict rules, but about ensuring that every voice in an assembly had the opportunity to be heard fairly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her impact as an educator and leader was so profound that upon her passing in the late 1990s, the local parliamentary community chose to permanently honor her legacy. Today, the American Institute of Parliamentarians (AIP) Spokane chapter proudly bears her name as the <strong>Alyce Baker Chapter #2<\/strong>, ensuring that her commitment to ethical debate and structured governance continues to inspire new generations of parliamentarians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Legacy of Alyce Baker Alyce Baker was a foundational figure in the Inland Northwest\u2019s parliamentary community and a highly respected master teacher of parliamentary procedure.
