Patricia "Pat" Gabel is the current Vermont Court Administrator, or head of the Judicial Branch. In 2010, the Stowe Reporter published a story about her, titled "Patricia Gabel Recognized For Leadership."
The story is about Ms. Gabel being honored in 2010 by the prestigious women’s advocacy group, the International Women’s Forum of Canada. She won an award for her commitment to identifying and promoting women leaders in the workplace.
Segue to 2016, and Ms. Gabel finds herself as the target of a campaign by approximately 100 Vermont VSEA Docket Clerks (all but two of whom are women) to address the Judiciary’s steadfast resistance to addressing the continuing impact of historic wage discrimination for this overwhelmingly female workforce.

Each year, VSEA invites members and their immediate family to apply for a VSEA scholarship award. Last month, the committee met to review all the applications, and yesterday at VSEA’s Council meeting in Castleton Vermont we were happy to announce the winners of seven VSEA scholarships. We’re pleased to have this many winners because it’s a testament to the level of exceptional talent our committee had to choose from this year. In fact, the Committee received more than 40 applications this year, which is great news.
