This system is based on founders'                paradigm of choosing cross-representation of each business,                profession, and institution within a community.                A classification describes either the principal business of                the professional service of the organization that the Rotarian                works for or the Rotarian's own activity within the organization.                Some examples of classifications include: High schools,                universities, eye surgery, banking, pharmaceutical retailing,                petroleum-distribution, and insurance agency.                              Rotary membership is by invitation only.
