Pledge Service Requirement (12/16/95)
------------------------------------
Move that the following be a standing policy of the Alpha Chi chapter of
Alpha Phi Omega concerning the interaction between the chapter and other
organizations who impose service requirements on their members.
The SVP or PC in charge of a service project will furnish any person so
requesting, with a letter stating the level of participation of that person
in the project. This shall include, but not be limited to, the number of
hours worked at the project by the person and a description of the project.
When the person in question is a pledge or brother of APO, the letter will
also include a list of pledge requirements or brotherhood expectations (as
appropriate) for that semester.
In order to fulfill the service component of AXcoAPO pledge requirements or
brotherhood expectations, the service must be carried out as part of an APO
service project. (If the need arises the SVP and MVP will determine whether
or not an event is an APO service project.)
DSK (2/13/96)
-------------
Section I.} Voting for Distinguished Service Key awards, known as
DSK's, shall be by secret ballot presented to the President at least
twenty-four hours after the adjournment of the DSK meeting and
continuing for seven days thereafter. Voting shall be on blank ballots
which shall be placed in a sealed inner blank envelope which shall then
be placed in another sealed envelope with the voters name printed on it
and his signature across the seal. At the time of the counting, those
counting ballots shall first verify that all votes were cast by eligible
voters. They shall then remove the inner envelopes and destroy the
outer envelopes before opening the inner envelopes.
Section II.} A person shall be awarded a DSK on a two-thirds
affirmative vote of the active members of the chapter eligible to vote.
Attendance during some part of the discussion of DSK's at the regularly
scheduled chapter meeting that has been selected by the President for
that purpose shall be a condition for voting on these awards.
Section III.} A duplicate copy of the historian's roll shall be
placed near the ballot area during voting. A list of any names brought
up at the meeting and not on the historian's roll will be placed with
the copy.
Section IV.} This standing policy shall replace all other standing
policies which refer to DSK's.
Continued pledges (11/14/95)
----------------------------
Move that it be a standing policy of the AX chapter of APO:
First, that continued pledges be encouraged to go through the
pledge ceremony at the start of their second term.
Second, that a continued pledge must either attend the pledge ceremony,
or, sometime prior to the ceremony, communicate to the MVP that he/she
intends to actively participate in the pledge term. A continued pledge
who does neither of these shall no longer be considered a pledge.
Third, part of the MVP's duties as coordinator of the pledge term
shall be to make a reasonable effort to contact all the previous term's
continued pledges and discuss their intentions for the coming term.
